Hi,
How do I allow my orchestration to pass the incoming message to another c# c
lass which is part of the project?
None of the items under biztalk orchestration allows me to do that!
:-(

use the expression shape.  you'll need to declare a variable in the
orhcestration view window that is the type of your class.  Then in the
expression create a new instance and call your method.

There is a sample in the SDK for direct submit that shows how to submit a
message to biztalk directly, but your best option is to expose your
orchestration as a web service.  It requires the least amount of work and
integrates nicely in both C# and BizTalk.

Raj,

There are 2 parts to your question:

how to call a C# class from inside of an orchestration, see the methodcall
sample in the sdk
C:\Program Files\Microsoft BizTalk Server
 2004\SDK\Samples\Orchestrations\MethodCa
ll

how to pass the incoming message to that is:
create a variable in the orchestration view window of type
System.Xml.XmlDocument
create a variable in the orchestration view window of type System.String
then use the code below
xmlDoc = (System.Xml.XmlDocument) MessageIn;
strDoc = xmlDoc.OuterXml;
you now have the xml document in a string that you can pass to your C#
method.
