    Infopath with webservice connection

    I am trying hard but in vain.

    i have on my virtual development env. Webservice that connects to db to store data. I am calling this webservice in my Infopath 2003  for submit options.

    Than i publised this infopath in form library in sharepoint on the same vpc.

    Everything works fine as its all on LOCAL MACHINE.

    now i need to move my webservice to sharepoint server , I dont know where to deploy this is their a particular folder on server, should move my folder which is currently at "C:\inetput\wwwrot\ws_reportservice on local machine"

    And than how to get the url for dataconnection for my infopath once i deploy this folder.

     

    Pls guide and help.

    Regards,

    RD

    Hi RD,

    You can install the Web service on the same directory as SharePoint but you'll want to make sure that there is no interference between the too, since SharePoint server is also a collection of Web services. In general you want to create a data connection for the ASMX page of your Web service. Without looking at your Web service more closely, I'm not sure I am going to be much more help than that. However, you can look at our DBXL Web service - it installs to SharePoint and provides quick and easy connection to SQL. Of course, it's free to use as a development tool. http://www.infopathdev.com/files/folders/dbxldownload/entry29778.aspx
