Alastair - I believe that I have a solution, although it might not be the solution you want. It might not even be a solution to the right problem. But, see attached. In the attached XML schema and sample XML instance document, as you can see, I've defined two separate element types, whereas I believe that you used only one. The reason for this is that in your snippet of XML (above) the element mySet can have either/both element content and character content, that is, mixed content. I've separated those two roles, in part because generateDS.py generates awkward code for elements with mixed content. In my schema, the element mySetRef (complexType mySetRefType) can have character content, specifically the xs:IDREF or reference, and the element mySet (complexType mySetType) can contain element content, and has attribute "id", which is an xsID. Would that solution work for you? Hope you've had a good weekend. - Dave -- Dave Kuhlman http://www.rexx.com/~dkuhlman ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EMC VNX: the world's simplest storage, starting under $10K The only unified storage solution that offers unified management Up to 160% more powerful than alternatives and 25% more efficient.
