Hi Eric, Consider this portion of an instance document: <test> <a> When a parser gets to <a>, which "a" is it - the element declaration that is the immediate child of <xsd:choice>, or the element declaration that is an immediate child of <xsd:sequence>? There's no way for the parser to know unless it "looks ahead" to the next element. That's non-deterministic. /Roger
