Newbie - Schemas - Problem with minOccurs? or xmlns?

Hello,

I've been working with XML for a little while but just started to work with
Schemas yesterday.  I am having some problems with my first attempt (big
surprise).  Basically I am just trying to get a simple document to validate
to make sure I know the basics.  I am checking the document by using a
little VB app I wrote for checking DTDs (so I know the program works).    

Below are my XML and XSD contents.  The XSD is in my wwwroot folder and PWS
is turned on.  The problem is when I say minOccurs="8", there is no error
during validation.  There should be because there's only 2 person elements.
I am pretty sure the document is not being checked by the schema at all.
Any help would be great.  

Joel

p.s. Thanks again Jim.
