Distinguishing Included Elements from Native Ones in XML Schema

["CHAUDHURI, Neil" <NC...@lmi.org>]

For the first of what will likely be many messages on here, I would like to know if Xerces can distinguish information (e.g. types, element declarations, etc.) that has been brought into a schema document through <xsd:include> from information present in the document doing the including.  Or put another way, if schema A includes information from schema B, is there a feature in Xerces (particularly through the XSModel abstraction but I will take anything) that enables me to distinguish A's internal information from B's information that has been included in A?  Of course, with <xsd:import>, the different namespaces can serve as a distinguishing factor, but it is not clear if there is anything in XML proper or in Xerces to allow the same kind of thing for <xsd:include>.

Any insight would be helpful.  Thanks very much. 

Neil
