Hey, folks!
I have a coworker who is helping me set up an online high-score database. He tells me that he'd develop a Web service in which the local computer MMF2 application would use to interface with the online SQL database.
Is there an extension or object which would allow me to interface with a Web service?
Thank you very much!

The GET object should be able to.
Thanks for your reply!
Hmmm... After looking at the Get object, I'm not sure how I would specify a Web service. The only two actions I see for the Get object are "Get URL" and "Add POST data".
How would I use the Get object to interface with a Web service?

I actually don't think you can.

Web services are accessible through a normal http connection, so the GET object is perfect.
Depending on the kind of service depends how you interact with it:
If you've made it yourself to take url parameters, use the GET action on its own.
If it's a SOAP service or something like that, you need to add the appropriate soap request as post data, then do the get.
Either way you get the response using the condition "on get complete" and the expression "page content".
