Hi

I have a .NET 2.0 web application project that provides a webservice
and also consumes a webservice.

I have just noticed that ..xmlserializers.dll file is now being created
automatically. I understand that this is created by the sgen.exe for
creating Xml Serializers. However, I can not see any reference to the
automatic creation of these, or how possibly the automatica creation of
these has occured.

Now that the files are created, I get an error when the XML response
from the remote web service is parsed (see below).

Regards, Lee

If I delete the dll, it works fine. What has happened to to make the
automatica generation of the dll, and why, if I don't delete it, I get
an error - probably becuase it's using it and generating one at run
time as well?
