Hi Ian, I expect you know these basics already, but first thing is to set
this up in the CF administrator. you put the wsdl url in and give the
webservice a short name that you can use.  This will verify that the wsdl is
valid.

Assuming this is all ok you can then use
<cfinvoke webservice="yourshortname" method="themethodtocall"
methodparam1="value" returnvariable="results">

The methods and method params should be in some documentation ( is this it
http://geocoder.us/help/ ?) if you're lucky.

results should hold the returned value from the call.

sometimes webservices are not very friendly and return very complex results
that you have to do more work to break down to something useful.
