Web Service URL

[RAJ]

I have a .NET web service and a VB.NET application to consume it. Every
thing works fine in the VS.NET 2003 environment.
When the VB.NET application is deployed, can I assign the URL dynamically? I
am planning to have a setting in which I can specify the URL for the web
service like: HttpL//hostname/mywebservice.asmx?wsdl
How can I achieve this?

Any help much appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm myself new to this. My understandiing is that it you set the Url as
"dynamic" in the property window, the URL is read from the app config file.

You could also set this Url programmatically (for a control hosted in IE,
I'll probably choose this option passing the Url to use as a PARAM tag (I
don't know how I could access to the Url of the page that hosts the control
?)

Set the web service to Dynamic vs Static in the propety window (in your
consumer project).. Then, in code, you could do something like this:

MyWebSvc objMWS = new MyWebSvc();
objMWS.Url = GetConfigEntry("CurrentWebServiceURL",DEFAULT_WS_URL);

you get the idea, read it from an INI file or the registry..
