Thanks for the reply. I don't know anything about that UDF, but I don't think I want to go that route, simply because XML processing can be slow, and if I have to convert every struct to an XML format prior to handing it off to the web service engine, that's probably more of a performance hit than I'd like to take.
But aside from that, I'm betting that wouldn't work anyway. The web service engine *does* convert the structure into XML before shipping it to the remote server, but the problem is that the XML format is not one that is part of the standard web service formats (as I understand it). I'm betting structToXml() converts the structure into a format that also isn't part of the standard web service formats. I just tried your suggestion, and it does seem to work, but I think I'll probably still avoid it. Good to know the option exists, though.
