Thanks for that great lead it worked perfectly!
I'm attachig some code for other searchers in the future:
System.setProperty(DOMImplementationRegistry.PROPERTY,
"org.apache.xerces.dom.DOMXSImplementationSourceImpl");
DOMImplementationRegistry registry =
DOMImplementationRegistry.newInstance();
XSImplementation impl = (XSImplementation)
registry.getDOMImplementation("XS-Loader");
XSLoader schemaLoader = impl.createXSLoader( null );
XSModel xsModel = schemaLoader.loadURI( "file:///path-to/my-schema.xsd" );
XSTypeDefinition typeDefinition = xsModel.getTypeDefinition( "schema-type",
null );
ValidatedInfo info = validateString( "blah", (XSSimpleType) typeDefinition
); //validateString from xerces sameple code: simpletype.SimpleTypeUsage

I think org.apache.xerces.impl.dv [1] is what you're looking for. There's
a sample called simpletype.SimpleTypeUsage [2] which shows how to use the
interfaces/classes defined in this package.

Xerces-J runs on JDK 1.3. Should still work on JDK 1.2 too, though I
haven't checked that in awhile.
