I not quite sure if creation of DTD's is out of the scope of this list, if so kindly point me in the right decision. My problem is, first I am a bit rusty in writing DTD's, second, I not even sure I can do what I want with a DTD, perhaps a Schema was more appropriate. The scenario is as follows. From a system, I get a CSV file, which is converted into a XML file, like: <data> <row count="1"> <item name="Price">5</item> <item name="Item">Football</item> <item name="SKU">1010</item> </row> <row count="2"> <item name="Price">15</item> <item name="Item">Basket Ball</item> <item name="SKU">1012</item> </row> <row count="n"> <item name="Price">10</item> <item name="Item">ball</item> <item name="SKU"></item> </row> </data> What I would like to do, is to make a DTD so I can check if the item elements is present, and in that order. CSV is not at "strong" as XML, and I would like to test up front, if the column names has been changed in the CSV import. But AFAIK, it is not possible to write a DTD that specifies the order and requirements of the name attributes, or am I wrong? /Thomas
