I have written a C# web service in Visual Studio 2005, to be used by InfoPath
2007 to retrieve and submit data.  The web service works perfctly, but only
after I have opened Visual Studio, opened the web service solution, selected
the asmx file and viewed it in a browser.

Do I need to add something to InfoPath or something to the web service, to
get it to work without going through these steps each time?

Thanks for your help,
Helen

You need to have the server of the web service as a trusted site.

You also need to have it as a data conntection.

For examples of web services check out the Database Accelerator at
http://www.qdabra.com and example tutorials at http://www.infopathdev.com

Where are you hosting the web service?  IIS or the built-in web server
in VS2005?
