Irene,

That worked. The 40 files in the DITIA 1.1 Schema coverted to 8 OWL
files.

A new probelm arose

I converted the 1.1 Schema into OWL files last night using TopBraid
and autogenerate relationships, but when I imported the OWL files, it
turned my OWL-DL file to OWL-FULL which reduces the relationships
capability we need.

The DITA Schema is this one 
http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.1/CD01/schema/ditaschema.zip

I will look at version DITA 1.12 as it has a better taxonomy and try
again.

Brad
