Bob ChauvinSubject: Creating an XML fragment from a schema node
Author: Bob Chauvin

I have a schema with two nodes I'd like to create blank entries for in my xml document. I can successfully create the document using the .NET syntax:
xmlChildNode = xmlDoc.CreateElement("ElementNameABC")
xmlChildNode = my_xmlNode.AppendChild(xmlChildNode)
xmlText = xmlChildNode.AppendChild(xmlDoc.CreateTextNode(""))

My schema fragments look like:

<xs:element name="MJCategories">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:attribute name="ReferralSource" type="xs:string" />
<xs:attribute name="Prospect" type="xs:string" />
<xs:attribute name="Other" type="xs:string" />
<xs:attribute name="Client" type="xs:string" />
<xs:attribute name="InHouseCouncil" type="xs:string" />
<xs:attribute name="MarketToMe" type="xs:string" default="yes" />
<xs:attribute name="Newsletters" type="xs:string" />
<xs:attribute name="ClientAlerts" type="xs:string" />
<xs:attribute name="Seminars" type="xs:string" />
<xs:attribute name="ContactSource" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:anyAttribute/>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>




Currently I code it like this:
xmlText = my_xmlNode.Attributes.Append(xmlDoc.CreateAttribute(ReferralSource"))
xmlText = my_xmlNode.Attributes.Append(xmlDoc.CreateAttribute(Prospect"))
xmlText = my_xmlNode.Attributes.Append(xmlDoc.CreateAttribute(Other"))
... and on down the list of attributes...

But what if my schema changes, and I add an attribute?

Is there a way to create the Elements with all attributes in the xml doc using the schema fragments without having to explicitly name each of the attributes? I want the new documents to get whatever attributes are in the schema for those elements by default, with their default values.

NOTES:
.Net 2.x

You should use SOM API (XML Schema Object Model)
please see the Microsoft documentation
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms255932.aspx

Hope this helps
