Hello,

This is my first time creating a web service.  I am not sure if my implementation is incorrect, but I am trying to use much like a class.  The problem is that when I am trying to consume I am getting confused and not being able to set the values of the properties.

here is the web service.

public class Service1 : System.Web.Services.WebService
    {
        private bool _isUserActive { get; set; }
        private bool _isCredentialValid { get; set; }
        public string email { get; set; }
        public string pass { get; set; }
        public int customerID { get; set; }

        [WebMethod]
        public bool VerifyUserCredential()
        {
            bool result = false;

            PURLDataContext purl = new PURLDataContext();
            try
            {

                var res = purl.Sel_User(email.ToLower(), pass);

                if (res != null)
                    result = true;
                _isUserActive = true;
                _isCredentialValid = true;
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                if (ex.Message == "Account is inactive, please contact your administrator!")
                {
                    _isUserActive = false;
                    _isCredentialValid = false;
                }
                else
                    _isCredentialValid = false;
                //Invalid credentials.
            }

            return result;
        }

        [WebMethod]
        public ArrayList retrieveCustomerInfo()
        {
            ArrayList customerInfo = new ArrayList();
            string validate = "Please Validate";


            if (_isCredentialValid)
            {
                PURLDataContext purl = new PURLDataContext();
                var customer = purl.Sel_Recipient(customerID);

                foreach (var c in customer)
                {
                    customerInfo.Add(c);
                }

            }
            else
                customerInfo.Add(validate);

            return customerInfo;

        }
    }

Here is what I am trying to do to consume.

            PURLServices.Service1SoapClient webserv = new Service1SoapClient();

            bool result;
            ArrayOfAnyType array = new ArrayOfAnyType();

            webserv.email = "[email protected]";
            webserv.pass = "pass";
            webserv.customerID = 12345;

            result = webserv.VerifyUserCredential();
            array = webserv.retrieveCustomerInfo();

Thank you for any help/
