I think I figured out what I need to do based upon your response, Adam. I have a better understanding of the SoapVar function from seeing how you set the xsi:type to KeywordReportJob. Google, with v11, has changed the entire process and I was thinking too narrow-mindedly. Thanks a lot! On a side note, I am still interested on some more detailed info on best practices for using SoapVar v. SoapParam and Native Soap in general. I will probably be writing some detailed documentation and complex examples myself [once I get a solid foundation in Native PHP/SOAP] for public consumption. If anyone has any info they'd like to contribute to my docs/examples, that'd be awesome. I've got a (dv) server from MediaTemple.net that I am going to setup a site for SOAP and Web Services examples, tutorials, etc. It will be covering PHP and Python initially. Again, thanks for the help and, should I only send replies to the mailing list?

Here is some sample code I wrote a *long* time ago (January, 2005) for v2 of the service: Code: http://www.trachtenberg.com/google-report.phps My old blog post on the topic: http://www.trachtenberg.com/blog/2005/01/29/using-the-google-adwords-api -with-extsoap/ Note: I never used this in any meaningful way, it was just an experiment to see what ext/soap code for the service would look like. It used to work. I have no idea if it still works, and what changes you'd need to make. -adam -- adam@trachtenberg.com | http://www.trachtenberg.com author of o'reilly's "upgrading to php 5" and "php cookbook" avoid the holiday rush, buy your copies today! -- PHP Soap Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
