web-services

Hi,

I've got a C# web application which I can't easily update the code of. However, I can make configuration changes to the application.

The application calls out to a third-party ASMX web service, and I really need (if at all possible) to log the full XML requests and responses. I have no control over the web service so I have to do it from the client.

I'm not using WCF - this is standard ASMX web service calls.

Is there any way I can log the XML requests and responses from the client web app without having to redeploy the code?

Thanks in advance

John
