Step 1: Create the Web Service

1. Launch Visual Studio 2008.

2. Select File -> New Web Site from the menu.

3. Choose ASP.NET Web Service from the list of templates. You can select File or HTTP from the Location drop down list. For this sample I'll use File.

4. Set the Name to "ReportingService". The path should be "..\Visual Studio 2008\WebSites\ReportingService"

5. Select Visual C# from the Language drop down list and then click OK.

Visual Studio will create a new web service and add a Service.asmx page and web.config file. The App_Code folder will contain the Service.cs file.

Hello Vince,
I was wondering if you had issues with load times while downloading the web service everytime you open the browser again. It takes 15 seconds to run my report the first time then 2 seconds everytime thereafter. Thoughs?
