Heck, I'll be happy if I can get MSXML 4.0 to accept <unique> and do the right thing. To the devil with the rest of the world.... If XML Schemas don't work right, it doesn't matter much what we stuff into the pointy brackets. Life is easier in the front office with 37 billion in cash reserves. Then you can say ANYTHING and SOMETHING will happen. Down here in the trench, you can also SAY anything but expectations are much lower.
