Achal PodarI am JustaStudent in IT. I am interested in ComponentObjectModel, ExtensibleMarkupLanguage, VisualBasic, SoapDiscussion, CategorySecurity, WebApplicationDesign, ActiveDirectory, SqlServer, etc.
I have been asked to read this HouseOfCom article and then summarize it. So watch that page :)

Also, XMLHttp is quite adequate in transporting binaries that are Base64encoded. Note there is a string size limitation (e.g. SOAP) that has to be accommodated in the app design. (Joseph M. Ferris in reply regarding SOAP toolkit)
For MSXML4 go here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=3144b72b-b4f2-46da-b4b6-c5d7485f2b42&DisplayLang=en
www.w3schools.com has good tutorials, even though they go overboard with applicability of XML. (One good practical example is to have mixed environment processing enabled via xml, such as MS components interacting with Linux web servers, or use xmlHTTP object to send recordset data to ASP page from VB.)
Watch out for ways to economize bandwidth usage if into webservices.
