Hi Corey, > Here's another question for you, then- is it possible, using > abstract types and/or elements, to create a "polymorphic" element? If by that you mean an element that can have any content, then yes: <xs:element name="foo" type="xs:anyType" /> This declares the foo element with 'anyType' as the content. It can hold elements or text of any kind, mixed together. By default, the same goes for any element whose type is a type from which other types are derived. If a type can have other types derived from it, then elements of that type can have their content changed to those other types. Cheers, Jeni --- Jeni Tennison http://www.jenitennison.com/
