Access web service from a COM dll

Hi,
 I'm new to posting on this group so I'm sorry if this post should be
directed to another, more appropriate, group.  In any case, I've been
working on adapting a COM dll developed by someone else to access a web
service.
 It works like this...a program (that I can't modify) calls a COM dll
(written in Visual C++ 6) that needs to somehow access a web service.
Does anyone know of any easy way to do this.  I've tried a number of
solutions so far.  I found a Microsoft add-on to Visual C++ where you
can provide a web service's dll and it generates a "web service proxy"
which comes in the form of a couple .h files with lots of code.  I
tried to compile this and it spit out so many errors I had to scrap the
idea.  Next I found a tutorial on how to access a web service from VC6
and I got this to work somewhat, but my C++ skills are pretty weak.
 What I'm trying now is to write a DLL in C# using Studio 2005 that I
can call from the old COM dll.  I've run into problems with this too.
 Basically, I'm looking for an easy solution to this problem that I
haven't thought of yet.  Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Try using the Microsoft SOAP Toolkit.  It should do the trick for you.
