Nothing special needs to be done to generate the WSDL to your webservice. Just postfix your Webservice url with "?WSDL" and you will get it. For example:

http://localhost/HelloService.asmx?WSDL

Once you do that, save the WSDL as an XML file and add it as web-reference to your client .NET application where you want to call it.
