Ok.I think I found the solution. I removed the method= post from the Httpservice and it did the trick. But I did try the evaluation version. Thanks for all the input. -NB

I'm afraid I don't know ColdFusion so can't tell if you CF code is correct or not. Once you see the actual data that is being sent to your backend code you should be able to figure out where the problem is very quickly. BTW. I have found Charles to be indispensable. It has saved me literally hundreds of hours in debugging time. It is one of two debugging proxies that understand AMF and the only one that is cross platform. It has been well worth its $50 asking price. --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED] ups.com, "sbnkn" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > Thanks for your suggestions.
