Sure. It is even recommended not to pollute your XML documents with 'xsi:schemaLocation' and al. --> You need to write a *minimal* *configuration* *file* to do that. Such configuration file look like this: example2.xxe: --- <?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?> <configuration name="Example2" xmlns="http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/schema/configuration"; xmlns:cfg="http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/schema/configuration";> <detect> <rootElementNamespace >http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/schema/example2</rootElementNamespace> </detect> <schema> <location>http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/schema/example2 example2.xsd</location> </schema> </configuration> --- * Rename example2.xxe to something more meaningful. * Replace name="Example2" by the actual name of your configuration. * Replace the target namespace "http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/schema/example2"; of the schema by the actual one. * Replace "example2.xsd" by the absolute or relative (to example2.xxe) URL of you schema. --> Now copy your version of example2.xxe anywhere in the addon/ subdirectory of XXE user preferences directory: [[[XXE user preferences directory is: * $HOME/.xxe/ on Linux, Mac, and more generally, on Unix. * %APPDATA%\XMLmind\XMLeditor\ on Windows 2000, XP, Vista. Example: C:\Documents and Settings\john\Application Data\XMLmind\XMLeditor\ on Windows 2000 and XP. C:\Users\john\AppData\Roaming\XMLmind\XMLeditor\ on Windows Vista.]]] Then restart XMLmind XML Editor. --> More information in http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/index.html
