I'll give that a try. In the examples I had seen it looked like an
application that was using a Web Service would automatically read the web
service's location from the config file. I didn't think there was anything
else I needed to do other than to add the web reference and keep the config
file with my app. So with a web app I need to do the extra step to read
from the configuration settings and set the URL of the web service object.
Maybe I would need to do this with a regular executable, but I didn't think
so. That's why I was getting confused.
