Thanks in advance. I haven't seen any books on XML Schemas yet. Several books have chapters covering draft versions though. I am aware of several excellent-sounding books with fairly up-to-date material in progress. The XML Schema specification has not been released in its final version yet. The XML Schema Working Group has flagged in the Candidate Release draft that some parts will be reviewed in the light of implementation experiences. And any parts that changed in recent times are obiously a little less stable than the more mature parts. So when you get an XML Schemas book, or read a chapter, you need a little patience that some of the details may be wrong for the final version. However, until then perhaps the best approach is to read the tutorials on XML.COM, read Roger Costello's online Tutorials. I suggest that if you familiarize yourself with DTDs, XPath and the Datatypes spec, that will be a fruitful way to approach the problem. Cheers Rick Jelliffe
