Calling C DLL from Webservices

[sylvester 26]

PROJECT
-------

The Client side Application (GUI) is written in Delphi which calls a C DLL (ODBC) which creates the SQL connection to the backend database and retreives the data.

Now
---

I have to write a webservice which gets the function and the parameters from the C executable and covert it into a XML format and using SOAP will have to send it to the server side (where it is received by a Java Webservice and it retreives the data this is done by another person!), then the data in XML format from the server side has to be received by my webservice and put back into the C program which will then
flush it onto the GUI.

COULD ANYONE OUT HERE HELP ME OUT! PLS
