accessing external webservice or webpage from SQL 2005

Is it possible to access a webservice from within SQL 2005?

What I am looking to do is place a trigger on a specific table, and detect if a specific column is being updated. If it is, I want to launch a robust process that does x, y and z. Something like this:

1) record is updated indicating that an account is closed.

2) SQL launched a webservice/ aspx page that builds an HTML email template and then mail it.

thanks!

SQL Server 2005 does have XML web service support. Seehttp://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191274.aspx.|||

Wow, thanks for the speedy reply. The documentation behind the link you sent seems to refer to SQL server fielding SOAP requests and "listening" to and delivering data, where the SQL server is processing the request.

But is the opposite possible? SQL calling another webservice?

Access to TableAdapter Object in WebPage Class.

Hi, I'm using Reporting Services on my website and for some reports, i get the timeout error after 30 secs.

I declared my object using the Reporting tools and I am using ObjectDataSource.

My report is declared in my aspx page:

<rsweb:reportviewer id="ReportViewer1" runat="server" font-names="Verdana" font-size="8pt" Width="100%" Height="600px">

My ObjectDataSource is declared in my aspx page under my report tag:

<asp:ObjectDataSource ID="ObjectDataSource" runat="server" OldValuesParameterFormatString="original_{0}" SelectMethod="GetData" TypeName="ReportsTableAdapters.ViewingTotalsTableAdapter">

My TableAdapter is declare in my Reports.xsd file:

<TableAdapter BaseClass="System.ComponentModel.Component" DataAccessorModifier="AutoLayout, AnsiClass, Class, Public" DataAccessorName="ViewingTotalsTableAdapter" GeneratorDataComponentClassName="ViewingTotalsTableAdapter" Name="ViewingTotals" UserDataComponentName="ViewingTotalsTableAdapter">

I am trying to access the TableAdapter object from my WebPage Class on the Page_Load event , so I can modify the Command.CommandTimeout. Unfortunately, I cannot find a way to have access to the TableAdater object.

Anyone has any suggestion ?

Thanks,

Richard

Did you ever get a response to this? I am having the same problem.
