Thanks Scott, stating the obvious always helps!
I'm very new to ILE, but I missed the parameter entry for this in the http_url_post_xml function.
Will try it and let you guys know!
Many thanks,

I'm sorry if I'm restating the obvious, but.. Have you tried supplying
the appropriate soapaction?
Here's the sample code you supplied:
> rc = http_url_post_xml(
> 'http://10.186.194.2/SAPWebService/Service1.asmx'
> : %addr(SOAP) + 2
> : %len(SOAP)
> : %paddr(StartElement)
> : %paddr(EndElement)
> : *NULL );
The SOAPAction parameter is the 10th parameter to this API. You are
only passing 6 parameters, consequently, you're not passing the
SOAPAction at all. Therefore no SoapAction is sent. Therefore you'll
get a message that says "Hey Chris, you need to pass the soap action!"
(Or "Please supply a valid soap action.")
I have no way of knowing what this particular web service requires for a
soap action parameter. But once you determine what it should be, here's
where you pass it:
rc = http_url_post_xml(
'http://10.186.194.2/SAPWebService/Service1.asmx'
: %addr(SOAP) + 2
: %len(SOAP)
: %paddr(StartElement)
: %paddr(EndElement)
: *NULL
: HTTP_TIMEOUT
: HTTP_USERAGENT
: 'text/xml'
: 'put your soap action here' );
