Yeah, sorry, this is more of a Perl SOAP WSDL generation issue than a Flash issue I think. I don't do the WSDL creation in .NET here, I have a .NET C# developer I work with. Nobody here knows Perl SOPA WSDL creation in my group. I do know that using native complex objects are fine with Flash and .NET produced WSDLs, and they semi-problematic in ColdFusion (according to some recent posts on this list - they recommended sticking with the straight XML response instead), but I know nothing of Perl-based WSDL SOAP requests. I only know the basics of a SOAP WSDL format, so I couldn't begin to debug yours... sorry. Have you compared your SOAP response to working ones on the Web?
