Peter, we have some clients here running successfully Visual Basic 6.0 (with PocketSOAP and/or MS SOAP Toolkit 3.0) and Visual Basic .NET against our Axis 1.1 Server. We are using RPC/encoded.
Try to build a Web Service with a simple methods first. E.g.: - public void getString() deploy the service to Axis, build a VB client, and test it. Expand you Web Service step by step public with - public int getInt() - public Integer getInteger() - public String getString() - public String getString (String in) - public String[] getStringArray() - public MyClass getClass() - public MyClass[] getClassArray() ...etc. to locate your interoperability problems. Beware of collections, exceptions, null-values in VB and some more pitfalls.

Alltough we have manage to use the VB client on non-axis webservices it doesn't work with any of the axis webservices. We have tried a some of the different (rpc/document/wrapped)* *encoding styles, but this doesn't seem to change anything. anyone got any pointers to documentation related to what the cause of this problem might be? regards, Peter Maas Application Architect / Streaming Noterik Multimedia BV Prins Hendrikkade 120 1011 AM Amsterdam The Netherlands Tel: +31 (0)205929966 Fax: +31 (0)204688405 Gsm: +31 (0)624687952 Web: www.noterik.nl -------------------------------------- Take a look at our streaming solutions: http://www.streamedit.com/demo.html Recent project: http://www.managenergy.tv --------------------------------------- :wq!
