Hi,
 
I have been searching for a way to write a schema to validate and accept any variable element/tag name as follow:  Since ABC and XYZ is any variable name, I can't use <xs:element name="ABC or XYZ">
 
Thanks,
Mike
 

<CONFIGURATION>

<ABC configtype="string">hello</ABC>

<XYZ configtype="string">hi</XYZ>

</FSE_CUSTOM_CONFIGURATION>

 

<xs:element name="CONFIGURATION">

???

...

</CONFIGURATION">
