• Claudio (Bonghi) Benghi Odd behavior on explicitly calling a custom Sharepoint Web Service from Infopath

  Hi there! I created a web service with two methods: one for checking out a document and one for deleting a document. I tried both methods with a test Windows form application and they work fine. I published the form with full trust and a certificate, so the security should be fine. However, when I call them from managed code within the infopath document (in exactly the same way), the checking out method always reports/throws an exception that th ...Show All

• pikachu123 Practical questions

  Hello all, For as far as I can see, LINQ offers key features that belong to the data access layer. (Not like the current features from System.Data in .NET 2.0.) LINQ is all about replacing existing data access layer code with LINQ code, I think.
