Carson - thanks for the reply. I had previously tried handling the "load" event and then calling the getRate method from within the load handler, but that did not work either. Here is the code with the loadWSDL being handled separately.
Any other ideas? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute" creationComplete="useWebService()"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.rpc.soap.LoadEvent; import mx.controls.Alert; import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent; import mx.rpc.events.FaultEvent; import mx.rpc.soap.LoadEvent; import mx.rpc.soap.WebService; public var service:WebService ; public function useWebService():void { service = new WebService(); service.wsdl = "http://www.xmethods.net/sd/2001/CurrencyExchangeService.wsdl"; service.getRate.addEventListener("result", resultHandler); service.getRate.addEventListener("fault", faultHandler); service.addEventListener("load", loadHandler); service.loadWSDL(); } public function loadHandler(event:LoadEvent):void { Alert.show("load event"); service.getRate("canada", "united states"); } public function resultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void { myTextArea.text = "Result returned"; } public function faultHandler(event:FaultEvent):void { Alert.show("fault: "+ event.toString()); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:TextArea x="134" y="65" id="myTextArea" text="getting service"/> </mx:Application> Bruce --- In [email protected], "Carson Hager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Bruce, > > The loadWSDL() method fires asycnhronously.
