OK, I downloaded your file and you've got a few things wrong here.
This should not surprise you at all. :)

I see the issue. I'll come up with a more appropriate namespace.


Yesterday I was working at home when i posted. Now I'm at the office, and I have rebuilt and readded the WS to
my project. I still only see one file.

One thing I wanted to check: I went to Tools/Options/Document Tab and turned on 'Show Misc Files'. Is this the
option you're referring to?


Lastly, and I don't know if this is related, I have a GetUser() method on the WS. I'm throwing a comp time error:

The method appears on the WS:

I'm not sure is this is NS related or just more newby mistakes.

BTW, thanks for the help.

>First off, your namespace. If you look at the properties for the project CSDataAccess (right-click on the project in Source Control and choose Properties) and look at the first page of the properties, the Application tab ... you'll see a spot to put the Assembly name and Default namespace. It always defaults to the name of the project, so yours is CSDataAccess. But, when you created the CSDataAccess file in the project, you changed the namespace to Marois. That'll come back to bite you, as you'll see in a minute.

>Secondly, I don't know what you're not seeing, but when I specify "Show All Files", there is sure enough 4 files under "MyWebService" ... reference.map and .cs and services.disco and .wsdl. (remove that extra reference.cs that you added ... it does not belong there!)
>
>If you'll look at the reference.cs file, you'll see how changing the namespace in the wrong place comes back to bite you ... the namespace of the generated reference.cs file is the namespace specified in the project's properties, so it's namespace is CSDataAccess.MyWebService. This is the way namespaces work. Everything in this project should use the same namespace. It's just a bit more organized that way. If you wanted it to be Marois, then you need to change it in the project's properties (personally, I think it should be more along the lines of Marois.DataAccess though, but for this example, I just went with what you had ... Marois).

>>>My point is that that should have already been part of your solution and should have been in your MyWS folder. There are 3 other files that go with it as well. Were they in that MyWS folder also? You should not have to add them to your solution, they should be included when you add the web reference. Where did you put them? Perhaps you should simply remove the web reference and add it back in again. Maybe it will regenerate it correctly this time.
