maxOccurs 1

Hi,

Why does this not work?
-------------------------------------
<?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot;?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs=&quot;

http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema&quot;

targetNamespace = &quot;test&quot; elementFormDefault = &quot;qualified&quot;>
<xs:element name=&quot;datafile&quot;></xs:element>
<xs:element name=&quot;hi&quot; maxOccurs=&quot;unbounded&quot;/>
</xs:schema>
-------------------------------------
But if I leave out the 'maxOccurs=&quot;unbounded&quot;' it works fine.

I am validating a xml file against the scheme using the validateOnParse property of the MSXML2.DOMDocument.4.0 object. the returned error says that the root element is not defined (which it is) - so that is not very informative...

Any help appreciated Sunaj

This will produce an XML file with multiple root nodes. You'll need to nest your &quot;hi&quot; element within the &quot;datafile&quot; element, or encapsulate both of them in another element:

<?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot; encoding=&quot;UTF-8&quot;?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs=&quot;[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema&quot;[/URL] elementFormDefault=&quot;qualified&quot; attributeFormDefault=&quot;unqualified&quot;>
	<xs:element name=&quot;ROOT_ELEMENT&quot;>
		<xs:complexType>
			<xs:sequence>
				<xs:element name=&quot;datafile&quot;/>
				<xs:element name=&quot;hi&quot; maxOccurs=&quot;unbounded&quot;/>
			</xs:sequence>
		</xs:complexType>
	</xs:element>
</xs:schema>
