What you probably need to do is first define your wsdl. Make your sub xml a type...if nothing more than text. Then use wsdl to generate your web service classes. Create a schema for your specific document type of this type. Then use something like Castor to be able to generate your Objects. See http://www.castor.org/. Wade
