Thanks,

Unfortunatly, I think my schema is too complicated for the standard VFP XMLAdapter. It's for some tax form which would essentially be built from three cursors. However, I seem to be having some luck using MS's DOM. I'm still playing with it, but I was able to load the schema without an XML file.

Here's what I've done so far:

oschema=CREATEOBJECT("MSXML2.XMLSchemaCache.4.0")
oschema.add("http://www.irs.gov/eforms","8872SchemaV22.xsd")
loXML = CREATEOBJECT("MSXML2.DOMDocument.4.0")
loxml.schemas=oschema

Now i just need to figure out how to stick in the data prior to generating the XML.

Thanks for getting me started.

>>Got an XML newbie question. I have an XSD file (2, actually. One including the other.) provided by a 3rd party. I need to create the XML according to this schema. Is there a way to load this XSD into the XMLAdapter to get empty cursors? Or, if I need to attach the appropriate cursors myself, is there some tool available to help read the XSD?
