Error: System.ArgumentException: Cannot convert to System.Int32.

[Simon Harris]

I have created a web service, which when I call in my browser presents the
text form etc. When I click the button, I get this error:

System.ArgumentException: Cannot convert to System.Int32.
Parameter name: type ---> System.FormatException: Input string was not in
a
correct format.

seems to happen only when I have parameters of different data types, e.g.:

Works:
======
<WebMethod()> _
Public Function GetAddresses(ByVal a As String, ByVal b As String) As
DataSet

Causes Error:
===========
<WebMethod()> _
Public Function GetAddresses(ByVal a As String, ByVal b As Integer) As
DataSet

Any ideas/suggestions will be much appreciated.
