To generate a Web Services client from a WSDL file:
- In COBOL Explorer, right-click a Web Services service interface; then click
Generate Client from the context menu.
- Check
Use WSDL.
- Type the path to and name of the WSDL file into the

Note: Generating a client from a WSDL file only works for service interfaces that are on your local machine. To generate a client from a WSDL file if you are working with remote COBOL projects, you can copy the WSDL file to your local machine and generate a client from the WSDL, and then copy the resultant files of the client to the remote machine.
