[RESOLVED] VB Web Service "beginner" help

[Dave Sell]

All,

OK I made a new website in VS 2005, as a VB.NET WebService. By default, the HelloWorld function thingy is available. I click the play button which opens up a web page. I go to click the Invoke button (this is all pre-built by VS for me), but the next thing I get is a big fat error... See below.

Server Error in '/MyWebService' Application.
