Hi, without much knowledge of Schematron, I believe it is good for expressing validation rules, but I wonder if it can actually be used to express calculations, like the BMI or the Barthel Index (sum of the score of 10 values).
I'm currently looking at XQuery that can do such things. Bye, Helma > > fit the RM schema - the archetype constraints are only expressed in > > our in memory objects.
