    Does the "Add service reference" command in VS not work for your scenario? That is available for Windows 8 C# projects, for example.

    No you do not use WSDL.

    Can you give more details about your services and the auth it is using?

    default sharepoint 2010. so guess ntlm.

    its not a problem to use the webservice as soon you created then i can connect with it. in another situation i had a pc in the same domain and so authentication was arranged. The problem occurs when the sharepoint and development machine are in dfiferent domains (or the development isnt in a domain).

    Let's break this down to help us isolate what the issue is.

    Since the problem also occurs when you create a C# Windows application this has really nothing to do with Windows Store app development correct?  What is your background, are you an experienced WCF developer?

    I don't understand this statement: "its not a problem to use the webservice as soon you created then i can connect with it."  can you clarify?

    I found out how to do this if anyone is interested.

    You simply download the XML WSDL file from the site via a normal browser.

    Then in VS2012, you can add a service reference to that file directly (i.e. put in the full path to the file c:\tmp\mywsdl.xml) and it will be able to generate the proxy for you.
