HELP! RE: XML Schema Validation error/possible bug?

["Beyer,Nathan" <NB...@cerner.com>]

I hate to post this again, but no one replied, so I thought I'd ask for one
more plea of assistance.

I was able to fix the problem when I turn of full checking, but I'd rather
leave it on if I could.

I've tried debugging the code a bit, but I'm just not familiar enough with
the code base to determine what's going on.

Thanks.

Subject: XML Schema Validation error/possible bug?


Here's the scenario:

The schema below is valid in both XMLSpy 4.1 and according to the IBM Schema
Quality Checker. When I try to validate the schema against the XML using
Xerces I get the following error: Error: cos-nonambig: (,Avg) and (,Avg)
violate the "Unique Particle Attribution" rule.

The weird thing is that when I change the minOccurs of either the "Min"
element and the "Max" element to 1 (or both), it validates without any
errors.
This is done using Xerces, version 1.4.3.

Can someone help me with this? This is causing a huge problem for me.

Thanks.
