    DeleteAttachmentTyperequest = new DeleteAttachmentType();
    
    // Identify the attachments to delete.
    RequestAttachmentIdType[] attachments = new RequestAttachmentIdType[2];
    attachments[0] = new RequestAttachmentIdType();
    attachments[1] = new RequestAttachmentIdType();
    attachments[0].Id = "AAAlAE1B";
    attachments[1].Id = "AAAlAE1B";

    request.AttachmentIds = attachments;

    try
    {
        DeleteAttachmentResponseType response = esb.DeleteAttachment(request);
        ArrayOfResponseMessagesType aormt = response.ResponseMessages;
        ResponseMessageType[] rmta = aormt.Items;

        foreach (ResponseMessageType rmt in rmta)
        {
            DeleteAttachmentResponseMessageType darmt = (rmt as DeleteAttachmentResponseMessageType);

            }
        }
    }
    catch (Exception e)
