Thanx Vy for your input,
Following up on what you mentioned about beeping occuring due to the server writing binary to screen, I disabled the console debugging and now the attachments go through fine.

That means you can pass in DOCUMENT as the style when generating the wsdl to say that you want DOCUMENT style messaging. Eyad Garelnabi wrote: > > >Thanx for your response Vy.
