Luke, here is some followup information. I have been studying the
problem more...

When I get the error:

> E:\testNet\AuthorsWinClient\Web References\asrv\Reference.map(1): Custom tool warning: DiscoCodeGenerator unable to initialize code generator. No code generated.

It references the file ReferenceMap, line 1. Here is that file:

> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
> <DiscoveryClientResultsFile xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
> <Results>
> <DiscoveryClientResult referenceType="System.Web.Services.Discovery.DiscoveryDocumentReference" url="http://asrv/AuthorsWebService/AuthorsService.asmx?disco" filename="AuthorsService.disco" />
> <DiscoveryClientResult referenceType="System.Web.Services.Discovery.ContractReference" url="http://asrv/AuthorsWebService/AuthorsService.asmx?wsdl" filename="AuthorsService.wsdl" />
> </Results>
> </DiscoveryClientResultsFile>

Is there any problem with the file?

ALSO: You said "I suspect if the VS.NET has been installed
completely", based on the error message above. I took that to mean
that maybe disco.exe was not executing.

First I looked to be sure that Disco.exe exists. I found it at:

E:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET
2003\SDK\v1.1\Bin\disco.exe

Next, I wanted to see if that directory was included in the execute
dir's of Visual Studio. I found (under tools/options/executable
files, in projects/VC++ Directories): $(FrameworkSDKDir)bin. That is
how I expect VS finds the disco.exe file. (However I did not find any
C# Directories references.)

But when I looked at system or personal environment variables there
was no entry for "FrameworkSDKDir". So I added one, setting it to
E:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\SDK\v1.1\

This did not help, the error message when trying to add a Web
reference is the same. From what I can tell, the problem is not that
disco does not execute, but that it has a problem with the map file.

I tried executing the disco program manually from command line. Here
is what I got:

E:\testNet\AuthorsWinClient\Web
References\asrv>e:\progra~1\micros~1.net\sdk\v1.1\bin\disco
http://asrv/AuthorsWebService/AuthorsService.asmx?disco
Microsoft (R) Web Services Discovery Utility
[Microsoft (R) .NET Framework, Version 1.1.4322.573]
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation 1998-2002. All rights reserved.

Disco found documents at the following URLs:
http://asrv/AuthorsWebService/AuthorsService.asmx?disco
http://asrv/AuthorsWebService/AuthorsService.asmx?wsdl

The following files hold the content found at the corresponding URLs:
  .\AuthorsService.disco <-
http://asrv/AuthorsWebService/AuthorsService.asmx?disco
  .\AuthorsService.wsdl <-
http://asrv/AuthorsWebService/AuthorsService.asmx?wsdl
The file .\results.discomap holds links to each of these files.

I really don't know where to turn next...

Thanks, Russ
