XML cannot fully get all metadata with "getItemRequest"

Question

Hi All,
My client is using GroupWise 7.0.3.
We want to get the dropdown list custom field data of document, but the XML file cannot fully record all corresponding custom field data by using "getItemRequest".
For example:
GroupWise Client - Document 1 :
Dropdown list custom field 1: aaa
Sub dropdown list custom field 1-1 of custom field 1: aab
Sub dropdown list custom field 1-2 of custom field 1: aac
Dropdown list custom field 2: bbb
Sub dropdown list custom field 2-1 of custom field 2: bbc
Sub dropdown list custom field 2-2 of custom field 2: bbd
Sub dropdown list custom field 2-3 of custom field 2: (Empty data)
XML recording - Document 1:
<custom type="String">
<field>custom field 1</field>
<value>aaa</value>
</custom>
<custom type="String">
<field>custom field 1-1</field>
<value>aab</value>
</custom>
<custom type="String">
<field>custom field 2-1</field>
<value>bbc</value>
</custom>
<custom type="Numeric">
<field>custom field 2-3</field>
<value>0</value>
</custom>
In my program, i just call "getItemRequest" and export the response to XML
Code:
WebReference.getItemRequest req = new WebReference.getItemRequest();
WebReference.getItemResponse resp;
string outPath = @"c:\GW\"
string FileName = filename.toString();
req.id = doc.ID;
req.view = "View";
resp = ws.getItemRequest(req);
if (0 == resp.status.code)
if (null != resp.item)
ObjectToXml(resp, outPath + FileName + ".xml");
Am i missing something or step?
Or what i need to do?
Could anyone to give me some suggestion?
Thank you very much.

Hi Preston,
But client doesn't update GW, therefore we will find another ways.
However, thank you for your advice.

The only place you will get support (with some exceptions) is GW 2012.

You can try GW 2012.
There is little support for Document Management in the SOAP API.
When you try GW 2012 and you still have a problem, let me know.
