Hello.
I've just coded a VBScript SOAP Client to send requests to a web
service in our intranet. It's working and we'll use it in a DTS cuz we
have not implemented SQL Server 2005 yet. Anyway. I need some more
functionality. For example with the script below I'm able to get the
Session ID Token from our web service and save the full SOAP xml
Envelope to a file. But What if for example I want to save certain
nodes I receive in the response?? I set it up so that I can use DOM,
been trying to do that but I'm getting errors.
If you have any tips they will be much appreciated.
Regards.
Martin
