Hello

I would like to have some suggestion how to best import already validated xml files from a "thirdparty vendor". Containing my desired entitys for saving.

My thoughts is to give a schema (xsd) based on my EntityCollection to the vendor. Then i can use the readxml for creating my entitycollection and save to database.

How can i create a shema file for supplying my vendor with a schema based on entity collection? Any suggestions to achieve this?

//best thanks greg

I guess you can just use WriteXML() to get a sample XML file, and then use XSD.exe to generate the XSD schema.
