Chip,
I actually meant for you to put the <cfset> tag in the webservice itself, but it definitely doesn't hurt to be in the userInformation() as well.
Following the <cfinvoke> include the following: <cfif isStruct(aADUserInfo)> <cfreturn aADUserInfo> <cfelse> web service is not returning a structure.<cfabort> </cfif>
This way we can see if the webservice itself is returning a struct or not, which I'm guessing it's not. (note you don't need the # signs within the <cfreturn> tag.
For a little more background, is the webservice running on the same box? If not where is it and what type of server is hosting it. Is it some really confidential stuff? If not, if you fill me in on the details off list, I'll gladly try and debug it.

Hi, OK I tried that. <!--- Get the users information ---> <cffunction name="userinformation" access="public" returntype="struct" hint="Get user information"> <cfargument name="LogInName" type="string" required="true" hint="the users name"> <cfset var aADUserInfo = structNew()> <cfinvoke webservice="TheWebService" method="getUserInfo" returnvariable="aADUserInfo"> <cfinvokeargument name="username" value="LogInName"/> </cfinvoke> <cfreturn #aADUserInfo#> </cffunction> </cfcomponent>
But I get this error: The value returned from function userinformation() is not of type struct.
I attached a pic of my web service struct.
