Much appreciated. I was focusing on the schema constraint sections and hadn't really analyzed the component definition sections yet. However, I'm still hoping I wasn't actually confusing the representations with components: I was really just concerned with understanding things I saw in the sForS representation, as processing this seems to be the first step in validating a schema representation (since the schema constraints all seem to start with "In addition to the conditions imposed on <[?]> element information items by the schema for schemas..."), and wasn't really considering a complete set of components yet. So by "validation", I guess I mean either before or on-the-fly as I create the components from the representation. Do I have something backwards on how I'm approaching this? Also, just to confirm, it appears you are actually saying that there is no real difference between not redeclaring an element in a restricting subtype (assuming it's not required) vs. redeclaring it with maxOccurs=0 (although there'd probably be no reason to actually choose this alternative). Correct? Thank you for your help, John P. A. Verhaeg JVerhaeg@MetaMatrix.Com
