Hello,

Does someone know how to create manually the header for an SOAP message, without having an WSDL?
I also use an X509 certificate for connecting to the webservice. Can anyone help me to get on the right road.

I have to talk to an old Java webservice, so that's why I don't have an WSDL.

I'm sending it with HTTPWebRequest or HTTPSWebRequest with VB but I needed a header like this:

Request:
<SOAP-ENV: Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<SOAP-ENV:Header>
    <kai:indentificatie xmlns:kai="http://www.url.com" >
        <Time>10:45</Time>
        <User>xxxxxx</User>
        <ServiceName>xxxx</ServiceName>
    < ExternalID>xxxxxx</ExternalID>
    </ kai:indentificatie>
</SOAP-ENV:Header>
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
        <test></test>
    </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV: Envelope >

The response what I have to read looks like thisL:

Response:
<SOAP-ENV: Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<SOAP-ENV:Header>
    <kai:indentificatie xmlns:kai="http://www.url.com" >
        <Time>10:45</Time>
        <User>xxxxxx</User>
        <ServiceName>xxxx</ServiceName>
    < ExternalID>xxxxxx</ExternalID>
    </ kai:indentificatie>
    < kai:Result>
        <Code>xxxx</Code>
    </ kai:Result>
</SOAP-ENV:Header>
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
        <test></test>
    </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV: Envelope >

Regards.
