there are no errors showing on the code screen but when I debug it to test it and goes to receive, my message box saying "web service not available" pops up.
It is built with a Text Box for Zip entry, Combo box for Weather or forecast, lblForecast for return. Three buttons Submit, Clear, and Exit. Submit is the one button not working.

The methods are:
GetCityForecastByZIP ( ZIP As string ) As ForecastReturn
Allows you to get your City Forecast Over the Next 7 Days, which is updated hourly. U.S. Only

GetCityWeatherByZIP ( ZIP As string ) As WeatherReturn
Allows you to get your City's Weather, which is updated hourly. U.S. Only

I need an example or step by step to correct. I am new to VB and hitting this wall and feel I'm so close. Thank you in advance for your help im really struggling here.

At the" lblForecast.text = intZipCode.ToString & " " & strWeatherType " it is underlined with the hint variable intZipCode is used before it has been assigned a value. Same for strWeatherType.
