Hi max, thanks for your answer, but I am afraid I cannot satisfy with this method. My web Services work in standard way and are accessed by a other means than PDF forms. So it means I cannot ( and do not want to) change them. So I agree with you that I have to manipulate the data in some way at client side (PDF) before sending it to the WS. However, I can hardly imagine how there is no other way than creating the full XML structure by hand when I need to send the data to a WS, although Adobe is able to do it when I am submitting through a HTTP request. If I have a form with some fields Name.First Name.Last, when I submit the form with the HTTP request with a csubmitAs XML parameter, specifying that I want to send the field "Name", I receive EXACTLY what I would like to receive in my WS.

Delcomminette Subject: Re: [PDF-Forms] Submiting to a Web Service PDF-Forms is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com/ __________________________________________________________________ The workaround is to assemble things so that you can actually send the data as argument to the web service. This would require a little bit of programming, but it essentially string assembly, which is pretty basic. In any case, you would have to do this, because you do need bigger control over what you send to the webservice. It is easier (and costs less) to prepare the data you send in locally than by the service. Hope, this can help.
