BizTalk 2006 SOAP Adapter - Messaging only Web Service Call

In BizTalk 2006, I am trying to set up a messaging-only scenario whereby the recieved message (a string) is passed to a web service method that takes a single string parameter. In other words, the whole body of the BizTalk message should be passed as the parameter to the web service call.

The service method looks like this:

    [WebMethod]
    public void LogAuditEvent(string auditEventMessage)

I have set up the assembly with the proxy class in the SOAP adapter configuration as required, but I can't figure out how to get the message body to be passed as the parameter. Without doing anything special, I get the following error message:

Failed to serialize the message part "auditEventMessage" into the type "String" using namespace "".

I think this means that the adapter cannot find a message part named after the parameter. So, my question is what do I need to do to get my message set up correctly? I was thinking that maybe I needed to add an outbound map, but was not sure what to use as the source schema and how to generate a proper schema for the web service request message.

Does anyone have any pointers on this seemingly simple task?

Thanks.

TDL,

I would take a look at the links below for some tips on how to do this. SOAP adapter can be problematic I would recommend WCF if your using R2. And if not look at the WSE adapters as well.
