> "[T]he schema for schemas does not allow [minOccurs or maxOccurs] on the > child of <group> when it is named." Unfortunately XMLSpy doesn't flag this. ... but looking at the last sentence of the paragraph: "This in turn is because the {min occurs} and {max occurs} of the particles which refer to the definition are what count." So I assume it's ok to relocate the min and max: <xsd:group ref="additionalElements" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> Thanks. --Ray
