Below is a sample XSD and sample XML. The XSD is written for XML like this:
<Columns>
<Column label="etc..."></Column>
</Columns>
I would like the XSD to allow elements with any name instead of just "Column". What I really want is intellisense to work in Visual Studio so that I can enter any element name instead of "Column" and still get prompted for the various column attributes. Is this possible? I'm just looking for intellisense. I don't need to actually validate the XML using the schema.
Sample XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Columns name="FindPatient" label="Find Patient">
<Name label="Patient Name" display="yes" order="1"/>
<MRN label="MRN #" display="yes" order="2"/>
<BirthDate label="Birth Date" format="shortdate" align="right" display="yes" order="3"/>
<SSN label="SSN" format="hiddenSsn" display="yes" order="4" notSortable="yes"/>
<DateOfService label="Date Of Service" format="shortdate" align="right" display="no" order="5"/>
<AdmitDate label="Admit Date" format="shortdate" align="right" display="no" order="6"/>
<DischargeDate label="Discharge Date" format="shortdate" align="right" display="no" order="7"/>
<Address label="Address" display="yes" order="8"/>
<Facility label="Facility" display="yes" order="9"/>
</Columns>
Sample XSD:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xs:schema id="ColumnConfiguration" targetNamespace="http://example.com/columnconfiguration" xmlns="http://example.com/columnconfiguration" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified">
<xs:simpleType name="yesNo">
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:enumeration value="yes"/>
<xs:enumeration value="no"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
<xs:complexType name="Column">

<xs:attribute name="format" type="format" use="optional"/>

<xs:element name="Column" type="Column" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:element name="Columns" type="Columns"/>
</xs:schema>
replace
<xs:complexType name="Columns">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="Column" type="Column" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
with
solution : allow any child element without specifying them
<xs:complexType name="Columns">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:any minOccurs="1"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
solution 2 : allow some well defined childs
<xs:complexType name="Columns">
<xs:choice minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbound">
<xs:element name="Column" type="Column" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
<!-- add other xs:element here -->
</xs:choice>
</xs:complexType>
