This is good information, thanks. I'm very new and I'm having trouble making an ebay API call in lightswitch. In visual studio I add a web reference then type "using application1.com.ebay.developer;" and it works. In lightswitch I cant add a web reference to the client. Instead, I added a service reference to the client and typed "using lightswitchapplication.servicereference1;" into the new c# client class. What happens is that all the API code becomes recognised except for one piece of code: "eBayAPIInterfaceService".

Is there a way i can call a web reference in lightswitch? the button just isnt there in the advanced settings.

Or is there another way I can get the API working with the service reference?

Thanks :)

Danny

Perhaps a look at a walkthough I uploaded:

may be of interest.

Thanks for the article. I would be extremely grateful for an article demonstrating the calling of a web service viaa button click here. The button click code is understood. Getting a WSDL service (which can only be implemented in the server) to be called by a button is a mystery though. I have been down the WCF RIA path...you can read about that plight here: social.msdn.microsoft.com/.../3a547ac4-5ed2-49f0-82bf-873925335a81
