Is there a soap dissector already in ethereal.

No.

I couldnt find it..If there is any tell me where is it?
If not how to decode soap messages using ethereal?

The XML plugin dissector has dissected the media type "application/soap+xml" as XML for a while.

If somebody wants something different from what the XML dissector does, they should write a dissector to do that, which registers for "application/soap+xml" in the "media_type" dissector, and submit it, along with a patch to make the XML plugin not register for that media type.
