how to run SVCUtil of WCF

I am new to WCF but I am trying to download metadate of some service.

I am using svcUtil application found here on my computer C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin When I click on the file to open command line tool. It runs and scroll some lines of commands but after that the svcUtil closes down.

Anyone came across this before. Any help will be appreciated

svcUtil is a command line, so you need to open a command prompt in order to execute it.

Open the Developer Command Prompt and execute svcUtil passing you WCF address, like this:

svcutil http://yourdns/service.svc

or

svcutil /dconly http://yourdns/service.svc

Hope it helps.
