Hi, Webservice Engines dont create Standards but try to implement them - as good as it gets anyhow - I'd say developers of Web Services should not need to bother with SOAP at all - apart from extreme cases of interoperability problems. Using a WSDL first approach you should have no problems exchanging your Web Service Engine on one ore both sides - that is, theoretically To answer your question literally - no, I dont think so! Cheers, Wolfgang
