Short question, long answer:

* XMLmind XML Editor Professional Edition can be used to create
documents conforming to any W3C XML Schema, including XBRL.

* But, XXE is not bundled with a configuration for XBRL. You need to
create such configuration yourself.

This can take 5 minutes or several days of work depending on the degree
of comfort you expect from XXE. See
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/ch02.html

* Free XMLmind XML Editor Standard Edition is identical to Professional
Edition except that we have added (artificial) restrictions to it:

Excerpt of http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/stdedition.html:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Standard Edition has been artificially restricted in its support of W3C
XML Schema and RELAX NG.

XMLmind XML Editor Standard Edition cannot be used to create or edit a
document conforming to a W3C XML Schema or to a RELAX NG schema, unless
the root element of the document has a namespace, and this namespace is:

    * http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema,
    * or http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0,
    * or http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml,
    * or http://docbook.org/ns/docbook,
    * or starts with "http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/schema/";.

In practice, this means that Standard Edition can be used to edit

    * W3C XML Schemas,
    * RELAX NG schemas,
    * XHTML and DocBook documents conforming to schema rather than to a
      DTD,
    * XXE configuration files and XXE demos.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Therefore you cannot use free Standard Edition for XBRL, its target
namespace being "http://www.xbrl.org/2003/instance";.
