Web Service to InfoPath

[=?Utf-8?B?SGVsZW4gVHJpbQ==?=]

I have written a C# web service in Visual Studio 2005, to be used by InfoPath
2007 to retrieve and submit data. The web service works perfctly, but only
after I have opened Visual Studio, opened the web service solution, selected
the asmx file and viewed it in a browser.

Do I need to add something to InfoPath or something to the web service, to
get it to work without going through these steps each time?

Thanks for your help,
Helen

This is a better question for the Aspnet groups. However, the problem is
that you need to deploy the web service. When you run it in visual studio
it's running a development web server. When you are ready to use the Web
Service live you need to have a full web server (IIS preferably, although
Apache with Mono would work) host the web service.
