Hum, seems simple enough :-)

And, just to confirm that the simple case does not hide any nasties when 
extended up to bigger examples, Marie's case would simply be (ignoring the 
specific names):

    <xs:assert test="a|b|c|d|e|f|..."/>

BTW - If, in another schema snippet, I wanted either attribute A or element 
E, but not both, then my expression would be:

    <xs:assert test="@A and fn:not(E) or fn:not(@A) and E"/>

I don't think I can do the following though, because I can't do "...eq 1":

    <xs:assert test="op:count(@A|E) eq 1"/>

Is that the case?

Thanks,

Pete.
