Re[mapguide-users] dlining error

[Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S]

So you are using JScript .Net?

In that case you might have to typecast it:

var featureService = (MgFeatureService)siteConnection.CreateService(MgServiceType.FeatureService);

Not completely familiar with JScript.Net, but the error seems to 
indicate that the object (featureService) is of type MgService.
MgService is a base class, and also the signature return type for 
CreateService.
The actual type of the object returned is MgFeatureService.
