Tom - thank you for your suggestion.  I had been using linux command line
tools and in windows notepad++.  I had forgotten about jedit, but Ill look
at that again.  Many validator tools will tell you there's an error but not
point out where it is.
Is  osisCore.2.1.1-cw-latest.xsd different from  osisCore.2.1.1.xsd?  I
suppose Ill have to find it and compare.

As for being helpful - it is.  At some point its easy to run out of ideas
and every new idea is useful as it provides another place to look.
