Another option would be to turn the hierarchy around, such that the type that requires the Logic attribute is derived by restriction from the type that has an optional Logic attribute. This suffers from the usual annoyances of derivation by restriction (having to repeat all the content), though... Cheers, Jeni --- Jeni Tennison http://www.jenitennison.com/
