XSD-How do I format xs:dateTime to look like hh:mm:ssTDD-MM-CCYY

How do I format xs:dateTime to look like hh:mm:ssTDD-MM-CCYY instead of CCYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss?

That would be an invalid format for a xsateTime element, and any parser that is looking at your schema will flag it as an error.

If you really want to format it like this, use a xs:String element, and format it using your outside language (C++, VB, etc), because I don't think you can format it using a XSLT.

Thanks for your input. I would also like to know if I can change the name of the output file. When I translate each XML doc, I get a file name output.txt. Is there any way to write a directive to name the output file like "Freddyoutput.txt

Ummm, that's not an XML question -- try posting that in a forum that is geared towards your language or parser.
