I am not an expert but I believe what you're asking would be achieved by
following:
 
<xs:simpleType name="AgeType">

<xs:restriction base="xs:integer"/>

</xs:simpleType>

<xs:simpleType name="GenderType">

<xs:restriction base="xs:string"/>

</xs:simpleType>

<xs:simpleType name="LangType">

<xs:restriction base="xs:string">

<xs:enumeration value="English"/>

<xs:enumeration value="French"/>

</xs:restriction>

</xs:simpleType>

<xs:complexType name="SType">

<xs:complexContent>

<xs:extension base="tns:SH">

<xs:sequence>

<xs:element name="Subject" type="tns:LangType" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>

</xs:sequence>

</xs:extension>

</xs:complexContent>

</xs:complexType>

<xs:complexType name="SH">

<xs:choice maxOccurs="2">

<xs:element name="Age" type="tns:AgeType"/>

<xs:element name="Gender" type="tns:GenderType"/>

</xs:choice>

</xs:complexType>

<xs:element name="Data">

<xs:complexType>

<xs:choice maxOccurs="unbounded">

</xs:choice>

</xs:complexType>

	Subject: [xml-dev] help me in writing schema file for the xml
	
	
	
	 
	Hello All
	       I need ur help writing xml schema for scepific xml file
described below:
	 
	Well, in 1 line the problem is that I want sub elements to occur
in any order and schema should allow any number of occurances of the
elements. I tried using sequence, choice and all group but could not
write effective solution. Let me make myself more clear.
	 
	say my xml file is: 
	     <Name>
	           <Age>10</Age>
	           <Sex>Male</Male>
	        <Subject>English</Subject>
	        <Subject>French</Subject>
	        <Subject>German</Subject
	    </Name>
	 
	    i.e 'Name' can contain 1 occurance of 'Age',1 occurance of
'Sex' and multiple occurances of Subject. But the major problem is how
to write schema allowing the child elements to occur in any order.
'Age', 'Sex' and Subject can occur in any order. Plz help me writing the
schema for this xml file.
	 
	Lots n Lots of thanks in advance
	 
	with regards
	Shashi Shekhar
