can u help me please

Search for svcutil.exe on your machine. Then either do a CD "path" first and then execute your command or provide the full path "path"\svcutil.exe on the command line in your current command. Usually the default location is C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin — Jagmag

Instead of starting a normal 'cmd' prompt, start 'Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt' in your visual studio start menu items

Use below statement to generate.

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC>svcutil.exe /t:code /language:cs "here your svc url" /out:urservice.cs /config:urservice.config

you don't need to mention the whole thing just the address of the endpoint would do the trick, like this.

  svcutil.exe http://'localhost':8080/MyService_endpoint

remove ' from commmand

I think the path value does not have the path value where the svcutil is available. Find the path from your system where the utility is available and use setpath command or add the path value to environment variable Path.
