So, you have the schema of SOAP message and you can use XML parser to send, receive and analyse SOAP message, wich is boring !! All SOAP actors (MS, IBM) make severals API to help developpers. In general you find 2 level API:     Low: You'll find methods like makeHeader(..), makeBody(...)                 --> You have to know the SOAP message structure     High: You known nothing about SOAP Message but you have             a WSDL file. In this case, in few lines, you can invoke a service.                 1st line: Get the WSDL description file                                     MS: mssoapinit(...)                                     IBM: ServiceProxyFactory.getServiceProxy(service, port, wsdl);                 2nd line: Invoke a method from the previous build proxy                                     MS: myProxy.getName()                                                                        IBM: myProxy.invoke("getName",args); Hope that helps Jean-Louis
