Any DreamWeaver developers here? Cold Fusion? o/t

I am seeking information...I posted in the Computer Group/Support but I am cross posting here because I thought I'd get more replies more quickly....I hope anyway....

Here is the link to my questions:

Thank you in advance for any information you can provide!!! It's very important to me.

1. Since your not getting replies, I'll throw in my two cents.

I'm not sure what the problem is with detail, .NET uses SOAP, Coldfusion surely has libraries for SOAP so a Coldfusion page should be able to use services from a .NET web service, or some bridging library surely exists. But I don't know Dreamweaver, and what it means for DreamWeaver to consume web services. But I can't see why there would be an intrinsic problem getting the two systems to talk.

2. Thank you very much....

I did get one reply in the Software groups..which I replied back with more questions.

Thank you for your statement. You are validating my position. There must be software either as part of Dream Weaver, Cold Fusion, or 3rd Party Vendor (e.g. the ASP.NET.SDK I mentioned) which would give the business partners the functionality they need to consume the web services. It does not make sense to me that we would need to re-write our web services (which are used by multiple vendors) to overcome whatever limitation they are encountering.

Of course, my next concern was is it even possible for us to write something which would overcome whatever the issue is within their development environment (without the bridging piece). Of course, as I said in the original post, one of our developers claimed he had written test services (changing the data types) which the Business Partner successfully consumed. Thus, proving the concerns I had just voiced were wrong and making it seem like I was being uncooperative and unwilling to provide our business partner what was needed.

Sorry to rant so..I've been in the software business for a very very long time...but I've never really been hung out to dry like it seems I have been on this project. My overinflated ego is suffering a terrible blow!!!
