Hi,
I need some code on how to retrieve sharepoint 2003 document libraries from ASP.NET application.
I dont want to add webservice references..
I just have to use requests and response objects.
Please let me know if anyone knows how to achieve this requirement.
This is an urgent requirement for my client...

Hi
I think you should rethink and actually use webservices anyway beacuse it is very easy. I have started to make some cool MS Outlook Addins and I was also negative to use webservices but after I read some articles from SharepointDoctors I now use them all the time.

To work with document libraries you should add a web reference to http://server/_vti_bin/DWS.asmx in your app and then you will see all methods and it is very easy to retrieve data as xml and then use that xml to populate any kind of data from sharepoint in your applications.
