out parameters for Web Service methods

[=?Utf-8?B?ZGF2aWQ=?=]

I have the following function for a web services method (6 parameters where 5
of them need to pass out values):
[WebMethod(Description="Given pkey, return a patient record as parameters")]
public void GetPatientPara(out string patientID, out string LastName, out
string FirstName, out string Sex, out int Age, int pkey)

However, in client side, I only have first five parameters in
proxy.GetPatientPara

What is the problem that I have?

Thank for any comment about it.

In fact, after updating the web reference, I get method interface like
GetPatientPara(int pkey, out string LastName, out
string FirstName, out string Sex, out int Age).

string patientID disappeared.

Check to see if your return value of the proxy is now string. I bet
patientID got turned into a return value.

I don't know why this happens, but another poster recently complained about
something similar.
