Using XML data in EBI without an XSD or DTD file

To create an EBI Schema without an XSD or DTD file we will look outside of EBI for a solution. XMLSpy offers us a solution to create the XSD file.

  • Open up the XML file with XMLSpy
  • Once the XML file is opened, choose drop down menu "DTD/Schema"
  • Choose menu option "Generate DTD/Schema"
  • Using the default options, make sure the first option of "W3C Schema" is chosen.
  • Once the XSD is created, import this file into EXTOL.

Note: There might be additional steps needed due to the complexity of the XML data. If further explanation or assistance is needed, please feel free to contact me.
