If you're using .NET's native ability to work with web services where it auto-generates a class (or set of classes) for you to work with, then perhaps the problem is with how your WSDL is defined, as that is how it determines what class(es) to create. Can you post your WSDL for us to look at?

Re: Precache questions....

I think what it boils down to is that you want to precache the forms that users most frequently use and those that take the longest to cache. For example, if you're using Incident management, at the least, you would want to precache the Incident Management Console, Help Desk for, and perhaps

No, that’s not right. Putting OR will always cause it to be true, because every date will either be less than 48 hours in the future or greater than 36 hours in the future. It should stay AND. It looks correct to me with AND so long as it’s a Date Time field and not just a Date field (in

I don't know that it's a bug in Remedy so much as an issue with the hardware. We saw the same thing. Most Linux hardware was OK, most Solaris hardware was not. The fact that you have to actually load the serial number into the EEPROM on older servers shows this is not a bug. If the

How did you get the 7.5 client installed on the Windows 7 PC? I tried it just Friday and the install failed, because the installer thought that there was no space left on my hard drive, so it wouldn't let me proceed. I know that I can install it using XP mode, but that's less than ideal.
