The question why I want the elements in a particular order is because the SOAP packet generated by the client is pretty complex. What I've given in the example in my earlier post is just a part of that.

If the elements come in order, it makes life easy for debugging the required elements. Otherwise its going to be pretty tough hunting for checking a given element within the envelope.

The suggestion to explicity create element with SOAP::Data holds promise. The link given will definetely help me in ordering the elements as needed.

Many thanks
