Wow, I know it's been since St. Patrick's Day that I've posted anything, but I figure now is as good a time as any.  Perhaps because I'm being frustrated by a number of things.  Maybe it will feel good to rant for a while.

Everything with the project was going well until we tried to get the SAP XI interface hooked up.  I think I'm just lost on SAPXI.  I find the naming conventions to be cryptic, and the steps to set up interface are very complex.  At least to me!  I have not even been able to finish lab four, because -- well, I don't know the because.

Our team was finally able to produce a wsdl file and so I plugged that into our web service and I can't even tell what I'm looking at.  The C# code I wrote to hook up the other services to our service only took me an hour or so, but I don't even know where to begin with the SAPXI RFC's.  Maybe that's the problem.  I was never even able to see any exposed functions.  Oh well I keep plugging.  I've been so buried lately with work school and family (honestly my wife and kids haven't gotten much from me lately) that I have not been able to spend the time necassary to figure it all out.

Well that's all and I do feel better, because I think I now know what I need to do to accomplish this project.

Next entry is going to be about the undergraduate advising system @$#%$*&*#%^&$#!!!!!
