    Web services

    Hi everyone!

    I've a question about Web service, is a WS can't be created with VB.NET or it can only be done with ASP.NET ?

    I think it can only be done with ASP, but I just want this confirm.

    Oh .. something else, is a XML Web Service and a Web service is the same thing? I guest, yes...


    Thanks!!!

    ASP.Net refers more to technology rather than a language. You can code for ASP.Net using VB or C#. Web services are sometimes called XML web services.

    So I guest I still can create WS using VB.NET.

    I ask this becose everywhere I look, I only find "ASP Web Services" but never "VB.NET Web Services"

    Your web service runs through IIS. You can write them in any .Net language (VB, C#, etc). They are just a page type in a ASP.net application.
