Validating XSD

[Jeff Pipes]

Is there a way to validate that an XSD file is valid? I'm creating my first
XML Schema but I need to make sure that there aren't any syntax errors.

Import the System.XML.Schema namespace then create a new instance of an XMLSchema
object. Use the Read method to load the XSD file into the object. One of
the parameters to the Read method is a validation delegate. This is the address
to a function you create that gets notified of validation problems during
the read. Inside the function, you can check the ValidationEventArgs parameter
to see what the problem is.

If you're just checking pure XML synxtax and well-formed-ness, you can load it
into Internet Explorer. If there are any errors, it will tell you.
