Hi, 

 

Here's a newbie question. I have an xml like this:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

             </xs:complexType>

       </xs:element>

</xs:schema>

 

 

What I want is to validate that all HHHs/HHH/JJJIDs exist in (the attribute)
the list of JJJs/JJJ/JJJID and it works. 

 

My question, is there a way to declare a key/keyref for JJJIDKey that works
for all CCC's. Above I've created a "aJJJIDKey", "bJJJIDKey" and I would
like to get around this.

 

Thanks
