Encoding and .net/Axis Interoperability

[Elam Daly]

Hi All,

I have been assigned the task of accessing a .net web service. The service requires an xml string as input, ie:

 <strData xsi:type="xsd:string>
    <data1>value1</data1>
    <data2>value2</data2>
  </strData>

When I use Axis and pass the variable to the .net service, it becomes encoded so all the < become lt; and the > become gt;
Is it possible to pass that string data literally using Axis?

Cheers,
Elam
