consuming Perl ws, WDSL namespace problem

ryan

I've been tasked with consuming a Perl web service that was written by a
person in a different department of my company. The problem is it's the
guy's first attempt at web services and he doesn't know how to create the
WDSL. I created web service with Visual Studio that mimics his service and
after some tweaking of the soapAction in the WSDL I'm able to call his
service successfully. When I use SOAPScope to look the messages being sent
and received the data is there although my response objects are always null
and I think it's a namespace problem. The Perl web service seems to return a
random namespace every time. If you look at the getURLResponse node in the
XML below you see that the namespace is 'namesp4' and this is different
every time. Is there anyway to change the WSDL to accommodate this? I've
also pasted the WSDL below Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
