Hi Casey, Oh, I don't know anymore - and I haven't even been to the pub yet. No matter how I format the XML that is sent to the Login method exposed by the WSDL, it craps out with: OK2007-01-12T16:14:35.741ZINVALID_USERNAME_OR_PASSWORD0001-01-01T00:00:00.000Z And the XML WORKS in an .NET WSDL testing suite I downloaded. From the Request/Response tab of this app, I've copied the XML used when I use the Login method - see below - I've replaced the UserName & Password with *s, but I've stored and use only the original: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?> <soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";> <soap:Body> <login xmlns="http://www.betfair.com/publicapi/v3/BFGlobalService/";> <request> <locationId xmlns="">0</locationId> <password xmlns="">********</password> <productId xmlns="">82</productId> <username xmlns="">***********</username> <vendorSoftwareId xmlns="">0</vendorSoftwareId> </request> </login> </soap:Body> </soap:Envelope> Here's the code I'm using: LOCAL loBFGlobalService AS "XML Web Service" * LOCAL loBFGlobalService AS "MSSOAP.SoapClient30" * Do not remove or alter following line.
