That makes sense, thank you!

Sorry.

In the upper-left part of the normal Taverna screen you will see the
tree of known services.  The emma service that you want to use is
already in the tree.  In Taverna 1.7 you can search for the service and
it will be highlighted in red.  In Taverna 2.1 you can filter for
services containing the string "emma".  In Taverna 2.1, the service you
want will be at the bottom of the filtered tree.  You can get to it
without filtering as it is under "Soaplab @
http://www.ebi.ac.uk/soaplab/services"; -> alignment_multiple -> emma.

To add the service to your workflow you can right-click and choose "Add
to model" for 1.7 or "Add to workflow" for 2.1.  The service will then
be added to the workflow with (a rather large number of) meaningful
inputs and outputs.  Just connect those inputs and outputs up and it
should work.

Taverna understands different types of services, such as queries to a
Biomart database, calls on WSDL operations, and calls on Soaplab
services.  The problem you have come across is that a Soaplab service
such as emma works by calling other services (which happen to be WSDL
operations) behind the scenes.  Users do not normally see those WSDL
operations and BioCatalogue is wrong to tell you about them.

To give a bad analogy (and because I am hungry), a cake is made up of
flour, eggs, sugar and butter all nicely mixed and cooked.  You wanted
to eat a cake (call the Soaplab emma), but instead you were told by
BioCatalogue to eat the raw ingredients (call the WSDL operations).

I'm not sure that helps :)
