Good morning,
this is the first time i write on this forum because i googled and i've seen related post with no solution.
I will expose briefly the problem.
I'm using c# 3.5 and i'm trying using a web service.
Unfortunatly i get a NULL response and i can't understand why.
RpcRsat.RSATWSP ortType rpt = new RpcRsat.RSATWSP ortTypeClient() ;
RpcRsat.retriev e_seqResponse res = rpt.retrieve_se q(req);
res is NULL.
I've seen that this problem is a naming related problem so i think that if i post both the wsdl and server request/answer would be possible to correct the wsdl to have a not null answer.
The wsdl of the service
Thank you in adwance, i hope you can help me because i'm working on this problem from centuries.
