Just a shot in the dark, maybe enabling disco would bring it back. I'm not familiar with the book you cite but there was a change between the last pre release version and RTM that disables disco by default. My guess is that the local server link is using disco to discover webservices hosted locally. There should be instructions on re-enabling disco in the archives.
-----Original Message----- From: Stuart Celarier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 12, 2002 2:45 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [DOTNET] Adding web reference on local web server I am trying to add a web reference in VS.NET, so I right-click on the project in the Solution Explorer and select Add Web Reference. and up pops the Add Web Reference dialog box. Now I've got two sources that tell me there should be a "Web Reference on Local Web Server" hyperlink in the left pane - but it's not there. Just the two UDDI sections. From the screen shot in Robert Tabor's book [1] I expect to find this hyperlink below the UDDI sections. Different versions? Setup or configuration issues? Any clues or suggestions? Many thanks.
