Hello All,

My appologies for posting the wrong xml and schema files. I was trying
to make a temperorary xml and schema files, so that it would be easy
to post on the forum.

If you (any one else) want to take a look at the xml and schema files,
please mail me personally, I would send them to you. I don't want the
post to get too long.

Things that confuse me most:
Here I am using my actual XML header, so please don't get confused,
with my post. The actual header looks like this.

1) cisGlobals.xsd.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsd:schema targetNamespace="http://www.talgov.com/cisGlobals" 
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
xmlns:cisGlobals="http://www.talgov.com/cisGlobals" 
elementFormDefault="unqualified">

2) accountInformationUpdate.xsd
<xs:schema elementFormDefault="unqualified"
attributeFormDefault="unqualified"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
xmlns:cisGlobals="http://www.talgov.com/cisGlobals">
	<xs:import namespace="http://www.talgov.com/cisGlobals" 
	schemaLocation="cisGlobals.xsd"/>
	<xs:element name="AccountUpdate">

There is no default namespace defined in this schema file, but this is
importing from a schema file which has a target namespace. what would
be the namespace of this schema file.

3) cis.xml
<AccountUpdate xmlns:cisGlobals="http://www.talgov.com/cisGlobals" 
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.talgov.com/cisGlobals
accountInformationUpdate.xsd">

Here I am using the namespace of http://www.talgov.com/cisGlobals this
is the target namespace used in first schema file. How would the
AccountUpdate and rest of the tags would be referred as.

Thank you for all your help, and once again sorry for the confusion.

murali.
