Calling a web service

Hi
 
I am trying to call a method of a web service external to Sales Force as part of an App I am developing. I can't seem to find any documentation on this. Can someone point me in the right direction?

You can't invoke an external Web service from within AppExchange; the way to do so is via an external app/PHP/etc server that has access to both the AppExchange API and whatever else you are trying to consume.

Thanks for your reply.

So is it possible to add a button onto the Salesforce UI? I am trying to integrate an address lookup facility in .NET.

As you can probably tell, I am pretty confused! :smileyindifferent:

In the current version you can simulate a button using an image and a hyperlink.  Check the formula fields examples.
