The problem seems like you are trying to do a test in the loop for the
restult of a message that hasn't been constructed yet. Unless your
orchestration is doing more than your diagram below indicates, the actual
order of steps would be:
> Orc A:
> Recv Req (Msg A)
> |
> |
> V
> Loop (while MsgB.result==false) -------
> | |
> | |
> Call Orchestration (Orc B)<----------------
> |
> |
> V
> Constrcut Msg( Transform Msg B to Msg C)
> |
> |
> V
> Send Msg C
Above the order of the Loop and Call have been switched. So the while loop
will try to check the property of an unconstructed message since the call to
the sub-orchestration hasn't been called yet for the first iteration. So
what you can do is just add a call to the sub-orchestration before the loop
to initialize the message.

> | |
> Call Orchestration (Orc B)<----------------

> V
> Constrcut Msg( Transform Msg B to Msg C)
> |
> |
> V
> Send Msg C

I had intially thought Loop to be a kind of DO..While which does post consid
tion check
where as it is a kind of While (ah! wish i had hit with asap)
I would like to be in touch with you, as i too do many more things in biztal
k 2004 including writing
a custom dapater
the modified orc shown below compiles:
I was doing this (assuming Loop to be DO..WHILE)
Orc A:
Recv Req (Msg A)
|
|
V
Call Orchestration (Orc B)<----------------
| |
| |
Loop (while MsgB.result==false) -------
|
|
V
Constrcut Msg( Transform Msg B to Msg C)
|
|
V
Send Msg C
Where as i should doing :
Orc A:
Recv Req (Msg A)
|
|
V
Call Orchestration (Orc B)
|
|
Loop (while MsgB.result==false) <------|
| |
| |
Call Orchestration (Orc B) |
| |
|-----------------------------------------------------
|
V
Constrcut Msg( Transform Msg B to Msg C)
|
|
V
Send Msg C
Thanks, and plz do answer my further queries
