Hi all,

I'm trying to figure out how to connect Excel 2007 to php5 based web services. I found this pretty interessting article on the topic. Ok, so it seems to be doable. Now, php5 soap services don't accept parameters in url form, so a RESTesque call like

http://domain.org/service.php?getme=something

won't work out since there are soap request envelopes to be transfered... Does anyone have experiences / hints for me on this topic?

It looks like excel just does simple get requests. You will need to write a non-soap interface to your php web service.

that's what I figured too. Finally I wrote a REST wrapper around my SOAP service in order to get it going...
