SharePoint Web Services 404 when adding web reference

2 New Member
When adding a web reference to a sharepoint web service in VS, it finds the service and it's methods fine - displays the methods in the Add Reference dialog.

But in the Web Services found at this URL: box on the right, it says

There was an error downloading 'http://<server><site >/_vti_bin/lists.asmx'.

The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found.

I meant to add that the site appears fine on the SharePoint web site.

When I get the error, the Add Reference button is disabled.

Any help would be very much appreciated - I've seen this problem listed on several sites, but no one seems to have an answer.

Hi, We are currently running VS.NET clients against a Windows 2000 server which has Frontpage server extensions; this means we can have teams of developers interacting on web applications from remote locations over HTTP without firewall issues. However, Frontpage extensions have now been discontinued and replaced by Windows Sharepoint Services (WSS) on Windows Server 2003. This means that if we want to be able to work "live" or...

Got a sample of MS's "Advisor Guide To Microsoft Access" in the mail today - accompanied by a sample "Advisor Guide To Microsoft SharePoint". I skimmed both, but the SharePoint explanation is too abstract - it's going right over my head. Can somebody explain, in simple/concrete terms what MS SharePoint is? -- PeteCresswell

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
