I need to be able to send SMSs from my Access app using SOAP.
Can someone point me to a 'how to' article please.

My VOIP uses SOAP web services. (whatever that means)
 
I don't know VB.NET/C#.NET.
Thanks for the links.

I just need to be able to send an SMS from my Access app.
From searching the web I have been able to get some code going but am having
trouble passing parameters to the service.

Are you referring to the service I am trying to use?

I was referring to the links that you had in your initial reply.
 
I finally tracked down the required tools and it works.
It is the 'MS OFFICE 2003 Web Services Toolkit' found at:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...8a-e1cf-48a3-9b35-169d819ecf18&DisplayLang=en

The how-to was found at http://safari.oreilly.com in book "Access Cookbook"
by GETZ and friends.

"...the toolkit creates a proxy class with the name clsws_webservice, where
webservice is the name of the web service. The proxy class takes care of
calling the web service using SOAP and processing the response, again using
the SOAP protocol.
For every method of a web service, the Microsoft Office 2003 Web Services
Toolkit creates a corresponding method of the proxy class with the name
wsm_method, where method is the name of the web service method. Thus, calling
the web service is as simple as instantiating the proxy class and calling the
proxy method corresponding to the method in the web service."

Worked brilliantly!.

After extensively searching the net over the last 3 days and posting to
various forums etc. I cannot recommend highly enough the OREILLY's SAFARI
online bookstore enough. The free initial subscription was enough to get me
to the exact part of the book.
