Solution
Call up the web service via a VB function and use a table to display the data

As an example we read weather data for various cities using the web sevice http://api.openweathermap.org.

We use the XMLReader object of .NET for reading and parsing the XML data returned by the web service.

The final result looks as follows:

GuiXT Script

// build up variables with city names
Clear V[myweather.cell.*]

// Cities
Set V[myweather.cell.city.1] "Berlin,DE"
Set V[myweather.cell.city.2] "Hamburg,DE"
Set V[myweather.cell.city.3] "Dortmund,DE"
Set V[myweather.cell.city.4] "Heidelberg,DE"
Set V[myweather.cell.city.5] "Roma,IT"
Set V[myweather.cell.city.6] "Sydney,AU"
Set V[myweather.cell.city.7] "Los Angeles,US"
Set V[myweather.cell.city.8] "New York,US"
Set V[myweather.cell.city.9] "Las Vegas,US"
Set V[myweather.cell.city.10] "Quebec,CA"

// read weather data for each city
Set V[k] 1

label next_city
if V[myweather.cell.city.&V[k]]

  // reset variables
   Clear V[response.*]

  CallVB "utilities.connect.weather" "&V[myweather.cell.city.&V[k]]" "response"

  // weather data found?
  if V[response.temperature.value]
   Set V[myweather.cell.temperature.&V[k]] "&V[response.temperature.value]°"
   Set V[myweather.cell.clouds.&V[k]] "&V[response.clouds.name]"
   Set V[myweather.cell.wind.&V[k]] _
                   "&V[response.speed.name], &V[response.speed.value] km/h"
   Set V[myweather.cell.humidity.&V[k]] "&V[response.humidity.value]%"
  endif

  set V[k] &V[k] + 1
  goto next_city

endif

// table row count
Set V[rows] &V[k] - 1

Table (2,2) (15,80) title="Readings from &V[today_d.m.y h:m]h" _
    name="myweather" rows="&V[rows]" fixedColumns=5
  Column "City" -readOnly size=16 name="city"
  Column "Temp." -readOnly size=8 name="temperature"
  Column "Clouds" -readOnly size=16 name="clouds"
  Column "Humidity" -readOnly size=8 name="humidity"
  Column "Wind" size=26 name="wind" -readOnly

// add button to transfer new readings
Pushbutton (15,2) "Transfer New Readings" "/0" size=(1,28)
