Your first step is to setup your SOAP client with our WSDL. In .NET 2.0 and below, and Java, this is a case of adding a Web Reference. In .NET 3.0+ you'll need to follow these instructions to add a Web Reference (instead of a Service Reference) in Visual Studio. If you're using any other language and framework, please consult the documenation for the SOAP library you've chosen. In all cases, our WSDL is:
