Error in calling a Web Service to work with windows phone

I am using Windows 7 and Visual Studio .NET 2010 with Silverlight 5 Framework.

I am working with a video tutorial from YouTube on how to create a Windows phone application using a web service.

The problem is that when I add the web service "http://msrmaps.com/TerraService2.asmx", once added the service reference i get a lots of and an error that I do not understand.

I call the web service as follows:

  1. In Solution Explorer, right -click and choose "Add Service Reference"
  2. Paste the URL above into the Address Box
  3. click Go
  4. Accept the provided namespace or type in another valid name for the namespace. I have named it as TerraService in my case.
  5. Build the project.

I found the solution for this problem.. I simply updated my Windows Phone SDK to the latest version. Latest Version can be found HERE . Download the latest update installer. Save your solution and close the Visual Studio. Update your Windows Phone SDK using downloaded file. Once this is done. Open your Visual Studio again. It will work smoothly.
