I have an app I developed and tested everything using one url provided
to me. Now the web service people came back and told me they changed
the url. How can I change the code to reflect the new url without major
change to my code. I have the url in my config file so I can change the
url there but how about the proxy that get generated?

Also is it possible to have the code pointed to multiple urls based on
some other configuration?

Thanks.

The address is hardcoded in the web service proxy. You'll see a line like
"this.URL = """. Just change it here.

if you want to change the url at runtime, create an instance of your proxy,
then change the url... ws.URL = "<new url>"

Note that it's also possible to set the "URL behavior" to "Dynamic" in the
properties of the web reference. When you do this, an entry will be made in
the client applications's configuration file. Then, it will only be
necessary to change the config file when you want to change server URL.
