This is a great question. My understanding has always been that the return of a SOAP request should be by definition XML. I guess you could extend this to custom content-types returned as binary objects (e.g., images), but what do you mean by custom datatypes?

If you have access to the web service developers, you could ask them to return the result as a simple array or structure and make your life much easier. Those custom datatypes are a "B".

I have the basics of XML down, but am struggling with SOAP and a strict webservice I need to work with. I know MX7 has some added functions just for SOAP, but I'll have to wait for Scorpio on those (couldn't sell the boss on 7, but did on 8!). Any help in the right direction is greatly appreciated, some googling and a walk through Barnes & Noble just didn't produce much. -James --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the "Houston ColdFusion Users' Group" discussion list.
