Sorry, the rest of the code is "in the main" so to speak.
It looks like
XMLValidator val = new XmlValidator("c:\\Schema file");
string temp = val.getSchema("c:\\Xml files\\fileone.xml");
string temp2 = val.getSchema("c:\\Xml files\\filetwo.xml");
string temp3 = val.getSchema("c:\\Xml files\\filethree.xml");thank you for the complement on the code. *smile* But unless I can get it to -work-, it's gold plating on a Ford pinto. I'm not trying to create a collection of Schemas that can be logically merged into a single schema. What I'm trying to do is more like an if (validates against first schema) else if (validates against second schema) else if (validates against third schema) On Apr 8, 1:37 pm, Cerebrus <[email protected]> wrote: > Couple of issues here: > > 1.
