Hi, I have the following construct in my XML document: <computer_list> <computer default="true">Dell</do_type> <computer>HP</do_type> </computer_list> Only 1 of <computer> can have the "default" attribute set to true. I am trying to specify the corresponding XML schema to enforce this. I tried the following among other variations: <xs:element name="computer_list"> <xs:complexType> <xs:sequence> <xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" name="computer"> <xs:complexType> <xs:simpleContent> <xs:restriction base="xs:string"> <xs:enumeration value="Dell"/> <xs:enumeration value="HP"/> </xs:restriction> <xs:extension base="xs:string"> <xs:attribute name="default" type="xs:boolean" use="optional" /> </xs:extension> </xs:simpleContent> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> The above suffers from the following problems: 1.) It allows the "default" attribute to be set to true for any number of <computer>. 2.) With the <xs:restriction> element, the parser complained that "Element 'extension' is invalid, misplaced, or occurs too often." Would really appreciate any input as to the modifications required to achieve my objectives. Thanks. Peter
