ok its to do with the way the web service is created. That will appear in the WSDL. But first things first. If you dont need to worry about a web service created by someone else and can make your own then VFP can create it with a simple ASP page. But beware VFP's problem of case as it is not easy to make web services in camel case. That was the first problem. In my case the WSDL was given to me and most of the Web Serviuces are defined on that web site. The Complex bit is to do with the WSDL (I think but Im novice here too). In this case VFP as a web Service will not go. See Rick Strahl's white paper to see why, I still dont know why but it doesnt. All I can tell you is it wont work and I tried. So the question is what is required of this web service and indeed is a web service needed for that matter. Allen

What's a web service other than a server on port 80 that dishes out XML based on GET or POST requests from the client? IOW, I don't understand why VFP would be incapable of handling complex web services. What makes a web service 'complex' or not? Paul No virus found in this outgoing message.
