[RESOLVED][02/03] Identifying 'not declared' error

I am calling a web service below and translated the code from C# but have one item I can't resolve. In the Catch soapException I have a line that says, "Name 'Utilities' is not declared". Anyone know how I declare it? If I comment out that section the code works fine but probably a good idea to include this.

Code:

Public Overrides Function RetrieveDocument( _
        ByVal pNumber As String, _
        ByVal PDate As String, _
        ByVal DownloadPath As String) As Boolean
      Dim bReturn As Boolean

            Dim fileStream As fileStream = Nothing
            Dim pro As Long = 0
            pro = CType(pNumber, Long)
            Dim ctr As Integer = 0

            Try
                ' Instantiate the web service objects.
                imagingService = New DflImagingService.ImagingService()
                credentials = New DflImagingService.Credentials()
                ' Set username/password properties of credentials object.
                credentials.UserName = m_sUsername
                credentials.Password = m_sPassword
                ' Set the credentials property of the imaging service to your credentials object.
                imagingService.CredentialsValue = credentials
                ' Call the TrackByDate() web method.
                results = imagingService.GetImages(pro)
                Dim result As DflImagingService.ImageResult
                For Each result In results
                    If result.Exceptions Is Nothing Then
                        If result.DocumentType = "DELIVERY RECEIPT" Then
                       
                            ' Do something w/ image data.
                            fileStream = New fileStream(DownloadPath, FileMode.Create)
                            fileStream.Write(result.ImageData, 0, result.ImageData.Length)
                            fileStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin)
                            fileStream.Close()

                    ctr += 1
                Next
            Catch soapException As System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException
                '******** ERROR: Name 'Utilities' is not declared *********
                Dim webServiceExceptions As WebServiceException() = Utilities.ParseSoapException(soapException)

                Dim stringBuilder As New stringBuilder()

                For i = 0 To webServiceExceptions.Length - 1
                    stringBuilder.Append(webServiceExceptions(i).Message & vbCr & vbLf)
                Next

            Finally

ParseSoapException is a method in WebServiceException, so you should be calling

WebServiceException.ParseSoapException()

But I'm of the opinion that someone may have changed that class name and to be honest, that class is somewhat pointless - it's merely encapsulating an exception's properties, which doesn't make sense.

I got it to work by changing that line to:

Code:

---

Dim webServiceExceptions As WebServiceException() = ParseSoapException(soapException)

---

How odd, I don't see any Utilities class in the code you've shown.

Sorry, just edited my latest code to put the way that's working.
