What I was trying to do was to use a &#8216;Web Service&#8217; I had written so I could send some data from a laptop to the webservice. Anyway things were just not working. I could not work it out. The code looked identical to some code i had used before. In fact most of it was cut and paste, meaning it should just work. <\/p>\n<p>I was missing something. Breaking for breakfast did not help. I added and deleted the reference to the web service so many times I cannot remember all the tricks I tried. But none of them worked. None at all. What can I be doing wrong. It must be something obvious. What can it be. I am not sure what made me think of it, but I remembered I actually needed to say I wanted to use the webservice in the same function that I was using it. And I had forgotten about this. ARGH. I had simply forgotten to add the following line. <br \/><i>Dim aprsws As New APRSws1.APRSWS<\/i><br \/>It was as simple as that. I guess I should have stayed in bed a bit longer this morning and got some more sleep after doing some other programming and debugging last night. Well, that is my excuse and I am sticking to it. <\/p>\n<p>I have a client coming over before lunch to drop some radios off. Should be fun. <\/p>\n<h2>Free Wifi<\/h2>\n<p>I just saw a story about how Dayton, Ohio is getting Free Wifi for a trial. Looks cool. If only Sydney would get this&#8230; but then again with GPRS, 1x and Unwired there is not so much of the need to have WiFi. I have a standing invitation to visit Dayton &#8211; a good friend lives there.
