I've been supplied a web service by a colleague that I tested by creating a quick .net3.5 project. the service exposes a simple method that returns a DataTable and everything works just fine.
The production project is .net1.1, though, and I get a runtime error on the line that creates the web service object:
The XML element '' from namespace 'web/InternetData' is already present in the current scope. Use XML attributes to specify another XML name or namespace for the element.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.InvalidOperationException: The XML element '' from namespace 'web/InternetData' is already present in the current scope. Use XML attributes to specify another XML name or namespace for the element.

My first thought is to create a separate 2.0 project that dumps the data to be re-consumed by the 1.1 project, but this seems like an unnecessary step.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
