Just mashed my first one together myself.
The first thing would be to download your wdsl and add it to your VS2005 project as a web reference.
Once past that the C# walkthough works pretty well.  Just change the writelines to label.text += "string" and make sure you have a label defined out your defalut.aspx.  You'll at least get to the "connected to the API" state.  Once there you should be able to reference the objects in the system.

Hi ,
 
I am trying to login to Salesforce from my .Net application.I am able to login to salesforce and access the Objects.
Now I want to redirect to one of my Salesforce Page from cs page with some sessionId or UserId and Pwd combination so that it should not take me to the Login page but to automatically login and show me the requested page.
 
Any suggestions?
 
Thanks in Advance...

cool. Can you tell me from where we can get this reference SFDCWsdl.Salesforce_WSDL. Correct me if my assumption is wrong. Basically the code you've sending user id and password to login into salesforce DB and creating one account with the help of xml document. without xml document is it possible to insert records like getting users input.
 
Thanks in advance.
