Or ofcourse you could downgrade to .net 2 and simply use a .asmx with a [WebMethod, UseHttpGet]… and voila! both will do the trick!

WCF is to .ASMX as ASP:TextBox is to html input…. and almost unnecessary wrapper.

“However I still couldn’t figure out how to set the timeouts in client side. It appears that openTimeout, closeTimeout, sendTimeout and receiveTimeout in wcf’s config file have no effect on vba client. No matter what I set there, my Outlook client times out in exactly 60 seconds. I’d really appreciate if you could tell me how to increase this client timeout.”
How much is realistic?

Damian,

I learned all about calling a WCF from Outlook thanks to your article. However I still couldn’t figure out how to set the timeouts in client side. It appears that openTimeout, closeTimeout, sendTimeout and receiveTimeout in wcf’s config file have no effect on vba client. No matter what I set there, my Outlook client times out in exactly 60 seconds. I’d really appreciate if you could tell me how to increase this client timeout.

My WCF service is hosted on IIS and its timeout is set to 120 seconds so I know that’s not the one timing out.

Thanks
Duke
