Hi Viv,

Thanks for taking the time.

It's actually the "lcXML = loBFGlobalService.login(lcLogin)" line that is causing the error...

Client:Incorrect number of parameters supplied for SOAP request HRESULT=0x80070057: The parameter is incorrect.

If you aren't getting this error at the login command then maybe it is something with the _ws3client.vcx in VFP9.

Regards
Doug
