Henry:
The restriction he wanted was two digits before the decimal point
and two after. Your solution does not restrict the digits after
the decimal point.
The following would work:
<simpleType name='myDecimal'>
<restriction base='decimal'>
<fractionalDigits = '2'/>
<maxExclusive value='100'/>
<minExclusive value='-100'/>
</restriction>
</simpleType>
All the best, Ashok

Sorry if this is a misunderstanding, but surely
<simpleType name='myDecimal'>
<restriction base='decimal'>
<maxExclusive value='100'/>
<minExclusive value='-100'/>
</restriction>
</simpleType>
would be somehow more appropriate?
