Is it possible to deliver an Excel Spreadsheet via an Web Service. I believe not as ASP.NET web services seem only to deal in Serializable elements which the excel binary format isn't (I think). If the Excel is saved in XML format will this work? I have a number of reports that will be emailed, but the request has been put into allow th...
Hi all, We're using Exchange 2007 WS to process mail folders and are hitting various problems if we try and forward a message we've already received. Our process is: Windows Service monitors mailbox folder, on finding a new mail we process the information and move the item to a 'Processed folder' and store the Exchange Message Id. Use...
I have certain strings which contain special characters so they can not be shared as enum members across a WCF service. (Actually, they are keys for configuration values.) I want to be able to pass in the keys at client side and get back the config values. If there is a change, I only want to change the config keys at one place. Consta...
How do you access a field in the message returned by a web service call ? I found Richard Seroters blog post but it says to drill through the Reference.map to the Reference.xsd ... - problem is, I've not got a Reference.xsd - I do have the Reference.map, and the child Reference.odx - I also have the wsdl, but not the disco ...
I'd like to get up to speed on web services-- I've found that I really like the video format; I tend to skim when I'm reading (bad habit) and I generally don't get the full value out of the video. I would like to see any kind of good resource that you can recommend though; the best thing to do is to collect the best resources. ...
I've been tasked with implementing a web service method that can be used for many different things(read: no requirements exist) and any client's won't have to change the interface Here's what the method is supposed to look like [DataContract] public class Status { [DataMember(Order = 0)] public long Code ...
I need some framework that will help me to do asynchronous streaming over http. It may look like SOAP WS or somethign else. I don't know if I name it correctly, so here is what I need: ServerA wants to make a request to remote ServerB over http. The request contains arbitrary information. Result for it is going to contain multiple recor...
Can anyone point me to a good/simple example of creating a WCF web-service sitting on one website, followed with a simple example consuming that WCF web-service on another website? ...
I have a basic ASMX service that I'm trying to get running (I'd rather use WCF but can't get the server to work with it). It runs fine in a no security setup but as soon as I turn on security I get: The HTTP request is unauthorized with client authentication scheme 'Anonymous'. The authentication header received from the server was '...
Our project has a site template that manages custom properties using SPWeb.Properties. However I need to be able to change these values through the webservices and I am having trouble finding any methods to even return the custom properties. Where can I find the equivalent to the SPWeb.Properties collection in the SharePoint web service...
I'm working on an application that reaches out to a web service. I'd like to develop a proxy class that returns a fake response from the service, so I don't have to constantly be hitting it with requests while I'm developing/testing other parts of the app. My application is expecting a response generated via Net::HTTP. response = Net::...
I have a bizarre problem that is doing my head in. I have the following classes defined in a single project: public abstract class AbstractUnitModel { public void executeRemoteModel(){} } //this class also implements a seperate interface, but I dont think that is the issue public class BlastFurnaceUnitModel : AbstractUnitMode...

Hi, I am new to C# (2 days) and am trying to consume webservices. I have successfully compiled a sample script to access and consume the webservice. Tested it via a console app and it worked fine. I used wsdl.exe to compile and generate the proxy.cs file, then generated the exe with csc.exe. Now I want to be able to call the script with...
Ok - pretty basic scenario, been there before, seemed all so simple - but can't recall enough to work out what's different about the setup at this particular existing codebase. Winforms App calls Dll which calls Web Service. Reference in the Dll to the Web Service is dynamic. How do I get the URI for the Web Service into a Winforms app....

I have a set of .ASMX API calls exposed and have a client that would like to call them using MS Office Access 2007. I have never used Access before and need to know how to connect to my services. What is the best way to make this happen? ...
I want to create a website similar to Yahoo finance, but much less complex for an independent study. I will be using Java to do this and would like to get stock quotes through a web service as part of the learning experience. It needs to be free or low cost and ideally would be real-time although do to licensing that probably won’t hap...
I am using methods with the Attribute [WebMethod] in my aspx pages. I don't use any asp.net ajax but jQuery to call these methods and return objects in JSON. This all works fine. Next I added an authorization check inside the webMethod, if the current user doesn't have access to the feature I need to let the calling JavaScript know. So...
I see that there are two options that I know can be used in web services... WCF obviously, and ASP.NET Web Services. What's the difference? I just started picking up WCF recently and had a little exposure to web services in the past, but I'm certainly not an expert. ...
