I just want to make sure I understand your question:

1) You have a Classic ASP page that needs to send some XML-formatted data to another website, and then interpret the XML that is returned.
2) The website that you are trying to communicate with, which is receiving the data and returning output, is running ASP.NET / C# (Visual Studio 2005).

Please tell us if this is accurate or not, so we can better assist you.

1)Its a desktop App that will call the web page like

69.23.23.23\MyWebPage\Default.aspx?Id=23,23,23Name=45,45,45,45

and then my webpage some how should retrieve the Id's and Names

Pref using XML

You will want to use the HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse classes to create a proxy that can read the uri streams (which, of course, will be in XML format).

The request (calling function) will look something like:



   byte[] buff = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(myXML);

   HttpWebRequest myHttpRequest = (HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create(<URL>);
   myHttpRequest.Method = "POST";
   myHttpRequest.KeepAlive = false;
   myHttpRequest.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
   myHttpRequest.ContentLength = buff.Length;
   NetworkCredential cred = new NetworkCredential("user","password","myDomain");;
   CredentialCache credCache = new CredentialCache();
   credCache.Add(new Uri(serviceURI), "Basic", cred);
   myHttpRequest.Credentials = credCache;
   myHttpRequest.Timeout = 30000;
           
   HttpWebResponse myHttpResponse = null;
   string response = string.Empty;

   Stream myRequestStream = null;
   Stream baseStream = null;
   try
   {
         myRequestStream = myHttpRequest.GetRequestStream();
         myRequestStream.Write(buff,0,buff.Length);   // Sends the XML to web page - waits for response
                   
         myHttpResponse = (HttpWebResponse)myHttpRequest.GetResponse();  //  reads the response
         baseStream = myHttpResponse.GetResponseStream();
         
         XmlTextReader xmlRdr = new XmlTextReader(baseStream);
               
         xmlRdr.MoveToContent();
         response = HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(xmlRdr.ReadInnerXml());
   }
