Hello all. I'm just getting back into vb.net after a few years out developing php and vis fox apps so a little rusty.
I have a Windows CE based barcode scanner which will update stock levels held in SQL Server 2008 on the main file server.
My thinking is the scanner will have a Winforms application and use a webservice to fetch data and send the stock updates back.
I'm just trying to get my head round where the webservice will live and how to call it. My SBS test server is called CSLServer1, I reckon I can see the project will add a reference to CSLServer1/cslscanner etc.
The client's server is called Server1, it looks like I'll just need to copy the files from my Inetpub\wwwroot to their Inetpub\wwwroot.
The reference is confusing me though, does this mean I would have to go out on site, connect to their network and add a reference to the project to Server1/cslscanner?
I can't see any way to make the reference to the webservice dynamic based on my test server or the live server.
Appreciate any pointers.
Regards
Graham
