Thanks. I had been studying the Compiler Extension code but did not understand what to look for. Since the same error message is posted when I incorrectly defined an element in my xsd, I was not sure if my xsd was wrong or if the UtilExtenssion did not support defining extra attributes. I finally realized how to use VS2013 XML Solution Explorer to import the BalExtension schema into my XSD. Using that info I could see that the extra attributes are hooked in using the "[anyAttribute]" attribute. With this info I confirmed that the UtilExtension util.xsd does not support adding attributes to the User element. So I will change my plans and create a custom child element, which is just as well. Thanks for the help.
