VB.Net 2003 and Access database Web Services Client/Server
-
Have a program in VB.Net 2003 that retrieves data from an access database. Now i have a project to do that must use Web Services Standards SOAP or WSDL etc. With the VB.Net 2003 and access database on either the client or server and then by the use of Web Services on the either client or server with different language Java,PHP,PERL,PYTHON etc retrieve the information from the VB.net forms that has retrieved the information from the access database by the easiest means possible. I was thinking of Java. But i am open to any ideas please.

Hi Kendo17 You are Explaining many things at the same time.le tme try to Understand this. Do you want Consume webservice from a Windows Application?, Do you want to Access the data from the Webservice using your VB Presentation layer? Take this simple road Create your Data Access Layer,Business Layer and Presentation Layer. Query your data from a Form through a BLL, and a BLL will Query from DAL and a DAL will Query from an Actual Database. i have an Article for that, but what you need to know that in your case DAL will be your Webservice. http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/N-Tier_Application.asp[^] Thanks :)

Your question doesn't make any sense and is very confusing. I have no idea what you're trying to do, what you have written already, or even what the point of this Web Service is.

2006, 2007Sorry about the confusion Dave was just in a hurry last night. Thanks for your patience. I must create a distributed application. It may serve any purpose, as long it is works. Small an complete is better than large and not complete work. At the very least, it must provide a Web Service, and it must consume the same Web Service. The Web Service must be implemented using generally accepted Web Service standards, such as SOAP, WSDL, etc. The portion of the application that provides the Web Service must be implemented using a different language, tool set, platform and/or development environment from the portion of the application that consumes the Web Service. For example, i might implement the Web Service in VB.NET, and the Web Service consumer (i.e., client) in PHP. I may not implement both in C#, or both in Java, or both in PHP. Furthermore, developing both under the .NET platform, though using different languages (such as C# and Visual Basic), is not acceptable. I must use significantly different platforms. Some examples: • Create a parallel computation application employing one or more Web services to solve a problem, such as determine a sequence of large prime numbers, decrypt a string, or use brute-force to guess a password. • Create a Web service to act as a front-end for a SQL database, which will respond to arbitrary SQL queries.

OK. That straightens out the requirements parameters of the assignment. So what's the problem?

2006, 2007Just enquiring to see what is the best way to go about this and get a professional opinion. If possible some hints to where to start. I am going to try some tutorials online asap and got some books here as well. I am looking for info on the easiest way to set this up on my own of course.

Pick something for the Web Service to do, like a converter between metric and english units. Then pick a platform and language to write it in. Write the service. Pick another language and platform to write a consumer app in that calls the Web Service. Write that. Test, fix, rinse and repeat. Other than that, I have no idea what you're asking. Where to start on what?? Writing the web service?? Or the consumer app?? Is it the language and/or platforms you don't know anything about?? How about starting with what the languages and platforms you DO know. Those would be ...??

2006, 2007I have done a little VB.net 2003 front end which retrieves data from access database back end some SQL, i know of JAVA, C# etc but never used them. But looks as if i am going to have to start. I may employ third-party libraries or source code as part of your application, but the essential functionality – especially the Web Service, above – must be my own creation. Any third-party libraries or source code you use must be credited in comments within your source code, and in the report

OK. Then start with VB.NET writing the Web Service. Create a simple one first that just takes a number as an argument and returns the same number back. You don't need a client app to write a web service. When you execute the service, it'll start up it's own web page you can use to test the service.
