How to modify webservice proxy to get Raw XML

Question

Here's the proxy method that was created for the web service I'm trying to access. How would I go about modifying it to get the raw XML from the web service call?

        /// <remarks/>
    [System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHeaderAttribute("CallOptionsValue")]
    [System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHeaderAttribute("MruHeaderValue")]
    [System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHeaderAttribute("SessionHeaderValue")]
    [System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHeaderAttribute("QueryOptionsValue")]
    [System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapDocumentMethodAttribute("", RequestNamespace = "urn:partner.soap.sforce.com", ResponseNamespace = "urn:partner.soap.sforce.com", Use = System.Web.Services.Description.SoapBindingUse.Literal, ParameterStyle = System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapParameterStyle.Wrapped)]
    [return: System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("result")]
    public QueryResult query(string queryString)
    {
        object[] results = this.Invoke("query", new object[] {
                    queryString});
        return ((QueryResult)(results[0]));
    }

Thanks for your help!

Fortunately there is a nice way to do it, just modify the generated proxy class so it inherits from different base. The alternative implementation comes from Web Services Enhancements 3.0 pack:

Microsoft.Web.Services3.WebServicesClientProtocol

in the class you'll have RequestSoapContext.Envelope.InnerXml and ResponseSoapContext.Envelope.InnerXml in the scope - that's exactly what you need.
