The "how" to execute he statement depends on the language consuming the
SOAP. In the .NET case, for example, you'd point VS.NET at the WSDL and
it would generate a class file that was a wrapper for the call. Then
you'd simply invoke a method on the class and the generated code would
handle all the plumbing to invoke the method on the remote machine.

Come to think of it, do you have the web service installed on the remote
machine. The WSDL _describes_ the method, but you still need to install
the service on a web server, most likely WAS in your case.

As for XMLHttp, it rocks! And is the basis for Ajax apps. However, most
of the time it's not necessary (or even desired) to use a complete SOAP
implementation for XMLHttp. If you're doing Ajax, you want the
request/response to be as slim as possible.
