Hi, I need to call a web service that requires authentication. My XML request looks like this: 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:namesp1="http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap" xmln
+s:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="htt
+p://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schema
+s.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSc
+hema" SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encodin
+g/">
     <SOAP-ENV:Header>
          <AuthHeader xsi:type="namesp1:SOAPStruct">
               <UserName xsi:type="xsd:string">username</UserName>
               <Password xsi:type="xsd:string">password</Password>
          </AuthHeader>
     </SOAP-ENV:Header>
     <SOAP-ENV:Body>
          <AddCUSIP xmlns="www.ABSNet.net:AddCUSIP">
               <cusip xsi:type="xsd:string">testId</cusip>
          </AddCUSIP>
     </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

This is almost perfect -- the only problem is the reference to SOAPStruct -- the web service doesn't know what it is. Is it possible to get rid of it somehow? I tried doing the following, but it did not help: 
  use SOAP::Lite maptype => {};

Thanks, Michael
