C# and Web References

Hi,

We have a web service that has mutliple levels; one for test, one for
QA and the other for production. With that, we also have one C#
component that accesses the web service depending on the level. What I
want to do is be able to compile the C# component once and have a
reference to all web services. There is code in the C# component to
indicate which web service to reference based on a registry setting.
However, the problem that I am having is that it fails to compile
because there are multiple instances to the same objects in the
different web references.

So, my question is: If I have the same web service setup in three
different locations knowing one is for testing, another for QA and
another for production how can I reference the ONE web reference I
need to use without having to compile it every time it moves to each
level?

Currently I have using statements setup to access each web reference.

Example Below:

using QAWebService;
using TestWebService;
using ProdWebService;

namespace Some.Namespace.Here
{
   public class SomeClass
    {
        //
        // Connect to the appropriate web service
        //
        switch (wsType)
        {
            case "TEST":
               TestWebService webService = new TestWebService();
               break;
            case "QA":
               QAWebService webService = new QAWebService();
               break;
            case "Prod":
               ProdWebService webService = new ProdWebService();
               break;
         }

         //
         // Instantiate/Initialize a single request shared between
         // each web service.
         //
         SomeRequest someReq = new SomeRequest();
                
         someReq.Version = 1;
    }
}

It fails compiling on the creation of "SomeRequest" because it is
ambiguous. Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Holly
