SOAP using VB.NET 2010 web service

Question

_{Tuesday, September 10, 2013 5:04 PM}

I have to connect to a web service that requires using SOAP and I'm very new to SOAP. I have established the reference to the service (WSDL) and as a result have all available classes for this service now in my project. How do I send the SOAP request to this service to establish the connection (username token, timestamp)? Any comments, suggestions, or examples would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

scott m

Hi,

For your question, I suggest you to check the following references:

#Sending SOAP Requests by Using Visual Studio .NET Client

#Sending and Receiving SOAP Messages
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms824627.aspx

#ASP.NET Web Service
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/1231/ASP-NET-Web-Service

I think the ASP.NET Web Services forum will be a better forum for you to ask this question, and you will get a good reply from there:

Thank you for your understanding.

Best Regards,

I see now a message with all kind of very old (in fact outdated) solutions.

Take a look at WCF (Windows Communication Foundation).

Webservices (SOAP) is a part of that since version 2005

A pity is that MSDN points first to a removed page and then redirect to another page which has nothing to do with that.

Try this one.
