    Folks!!

    Can you / anyone help? Am new to Live Search API (and perhaps development / web services) but I thought the MSN Documentation was pretty straightforward AND YET ... I'm stuck.

    I thought I could use the BELOW soap call to get LOCAL to ILLINOIS news source results where query = 'a' and sources = 'news' and en-US market.

    ALAS ... I get 10 news rows of national headlines - which suggests I'm making the API call incorrectly.

    PLEASE HELP!


    http://api.search.live.net/xml.aspx?Appid=1234567890&query=a&sources=news&market=en-US&UIlanguage=en&SortBy=Date&LocationOverride=US.IL

    (where 1234567890 is obviously not my real appid)


    Richard
