Hi, a Q from a non-Mercator user - but customer who is!
Does anyone know if the XML Schema Importer supports abstract types? I have 2 schemas; Schema A declares an abstract type:
<xs:element name="Document" type="DocumentType"/>
<xs:complexType name="DocumentType" abstract="true"> etc

and Schema 2 imports schema A, and declares a concrete use:
<xs:complexType name="ConcreteDoc">
<xs:complexContent>
<xs:extension base="cmn:DocumentType">
(Note schema A is in a different namespace to B)

XML Instances thus look like:
<cmn:Document xsi:type="ConcreteDoc">

If not, can a type tree be created by some other route relatively easily?
Thanks
--Steve
