Testing it on my computer works. But it is a too big of a maintenance headache to implement. Different customers have all the EmailList.xsd in their XML files. But the XML files are of different "structure". Up to now, this XML was used only by .NET application which works well since it ignores the XSD part.
Now I need to access the same XML from the VFP and running into the problem with the XSD.
