I'm originally Java developer, still baby stepping in .Net so please don't get take my question as a stupid one. I'm asked to use a pre-done Web Services. The Resources that was given to me doesn't include WS URL. I only have some documentations of the WS and its WSDL http://beta.catcombinator.com/tracking-ws/api/gadget?wsdl I know for sure that there is a tool in Java that can use this WSDL like JAXB to create objects out of WSDL, but I have no clue what to do in .NET to do such thing. Can you guys give me some support? PTW this WSDL is suppose to return a webservice and a Bean. Your help is appreciated.

You are looking for WSDL to Proxy Class Tool.

You can use svcutil to generate your proxy classes from your WSDL.
Open a "Visual Studio command prompt", then it can be as simple as running the following command
svcutil http://beta.catcombinator.com/tracking-ws/api/gadget
Obviously, there are lots of command-line flags you might want to use to modify the output for language (c#, VB), namespace, etc.
To open the correct command prompt:
- Start → All Programs → Microsoft Visual Studio [Version] -> Visual Studio Tools

I might have given it slightly wrong - I can't test it because our proxy is blocking it. Try it again, without the
?wsdl at the end.Import the web service into Visual Studio
In the right hand side of your project you have "References". You want to right-click on the "References" option and select "Add Web Reference". You will then be provided with a wizard for selecting the location of your WSDL file. Through this wizard visual studio will create a "Proxy" class for you so you can treat the web service as an object as you would in Java.
