Hi Diwakar, I don't believe you will encounter any major problems from not using a SOAP toolkit, but generating the SOAP messages by hand will require you to pay extra attention to the details. For example, in v2009 when you set the bidding strategy of a campaign, you don't assign a value to the element but instead set it's XSI type:
<biddingStrategy xsi:type="ManualCPC" /> Some of these methodologies aren't immediately obvious, but are handled automatically by out client libraries and various SOAP toolkits.
