Michael,

Thank you for your reply.

I have attached my schema file and the xml file I am testing with.

What I am trying to do is set some limits on the values of the =
simpleType elements. I have only started with scalability but I want to =
use the same type for other elements as well. I am looking for a good =
way to do that.

Thank you.

Ayman

  From this description, it's not clear what you're doing wrong. There =

possible to see what's going wrong without seeing your code.

    I am trying to set a range for a schema element and would appreciate =
if I can get some advice on the best way to do it.

    What I am trying is to set a restriction on a simple type element, =
then referencing that elment in a complex type, and finally reference =
that complex type in a different complex type (root element).

    Are there any restrictions when using <xsd:restriction> on =
referencing the resulting element in a different element?

    If the boundary conditions are repeated for other elements, what is =
the cleanest way to achieve that?

    Please excuse my trivial questions as I am fairly new to the =
subject.

    Thanks for any help.

    Ayman
