Hi everyone

I have a SOAP message coming back that is the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"><soapenv:Body><getFileNamedResponse xmlns="http://presentment.docucorp.ib.metlife.com"><getFileNamed Return href="cid:F573BFC87EB8C37A61865B6CB3878528" xmlns:apachesoap="http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap"/></getFileNamedResponse></soapenv:Body></soapenv:Envelope>

There's the contentID F573BFC87E...etc in there, and I can retrieve that. What I'm stuck on and can't find much of on the 'net is how to retrieve the attachment (a pdf) and display it.

Some parts after the SOAP envelope begin like this:
------=_Part_3_1439847890.1124402317089
Content-Type: application/pdf
Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary
Content-Id: <F573BFC87EB8C37A61865B6CB3878528>

%PDF-1.3
%âãÏÓ
    11 0 obj<</Linearized 1/L 9768/H[ 659 295]/O 13/E 8627/N 1/T 9501>>
endobj

xref
    11 17
0000000016 00000 n [truncated]

Any help is greatly appreciated for this newbie.
Thanks!

has anyone come up with a solution to this problem? I am having the exact same issue. I have a web service that is returning a multipart response, where a PDF attachment. I need to extract that attachment and provide it to the user with classic ASP

This probably didn't get a reply because this is an XML forum, not a Mime/PDF/Classic ASP forum (and just because the question starts off by mentioning SOAP doesn't mean the answer has anything to do with XML).

You need something to read MIME encoded multipart messages by the sounds of it, which is nothing to do with XML.
