[RESOLVED] Accessing Local Web Service (IIS) from VB.NET

[Raziiq]

Hi there.

I have developed a web service on my LAN PC, then i hosted that Web Service using IIS and now i can access that web service on that Local PC using http://localhost:<PortNo>/Service.asmx and similarly i can access this service from another PC on my LAN network using http://<ip address>:<PortNo>/Service.asmx, all is well.

Now i am trying to access this web service from a VB.net Program on another PC on my LAN. I added the Service to my VB.net Project using the Add reference in solution Explorer, all is well again. Now the problem is i dont know how to access that service in my code?? When i try something like this

dim myService as new WebCalService
'Webcal is my service running on a network PC.

i get an underline under WebCalService and it says Type Expected??

Anyone having any suggestion on how to use a WebService on a LAN in VB.net??

Well i got it working. I was adding a Service instead of Web Service as i think this has changed in VS2008.

Any one having problem adding a webservice, do this

Right Click your project in Solution Explorer and click add Service Reference.
Then go to Advanced and Click on Add Web Reference then add your web/local Address and click add, you are good to go.
