I've been working with VB.net for a few months and I have been tasked to build a Web Service and define a SOAP message policy which I have not done before. I am using VS.net 2003, Framework 1.1, and WSE 2.0 for my Web Service.

I haven’t been able to find any good examples on how to build a Web Service that uses SOAP message policies, nor any good examples shows you how to define a SOAP message policy.

What I am looking for are shells or templates that show the basic foundations or framework for which all Web services, and SOAP policies can be built from before any APP specific functionality is added.

Since I’m new to working with SOAP and WS, I do not know what must be included in a SOAP policy before I add any APP specific functionality to it. What should my code framework look like in my Web service .asmx before adding my APP specific functionality? Should my SOAP message policy be a call to a XML with the policies in it or can it be built in the Web Service as a .asmx or .vb?
