SYMPTOMS
When you use the Microsoft BPEL Import Wizard to import a multipart Web Service Description Language (WSDL) file into your Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004 project, the BPEL Import Wizard creates an orchestration file (.odx) that has a message type that is set to system.string.

Note BPEL is an acronym for Business Process Execution Language.



CAUSE
This problem occurs if the data type in the WSDL file is xsd:integer.

In this scenario, the BPEL Import Wizard uses the Microsoft .NET Framework Xsd.exe utility to import data types from WSDL into .odx formats. The Xsd.exe utility converts the xsd:integer data type to the system.string data type.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section of this article.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, after you import the WSDL file into the .odx format, convert the data type to the Microsoft .NET Framework data type that you want.
