    <p>I am experimenting creating XML data binding classes with <a href="http://linqtoxsd.codeplex.com/">LinqToXSD</a> and an XML Schema containing a number of imported schemas. All of the schemas are <strong><a href="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/Tmats/">located here.</a></strong> </p> <p>To accomplish this, I used the following root schema document:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:TmatsG="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsG" elementFormDefault="unqualified"&gt; &lt;xs:import namespace="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsCommon" schemaLocation="TmatsCommonTypes.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:import namespace="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsC" schemaLocation="TmatsCGroup.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:import namespace="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsD" schemaLocation="TmatsDGroup.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:import namespace="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsG" schemaLocation="TmatsGGroup.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:import namespace="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsH" schemaLocation="TmatsHGroup.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:import namespace="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsM" schemaLocation="TmatsMGroup.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:import namespace="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsP" schemaLocation="TmatsPGroup.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:import namespace="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsR" schemaLocation="TmatsRGroup.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:import namespace="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsS" schemaLocation="TmatsSGroup.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:import namespace="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsT" schemaLocation="TmatsTGroup.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:import namespace="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsV" schemaLocation="TmatsVGroup.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:element name="Tmats" type="TmatsG:Tmats"&gt; &lt;xs:annotation&gt; &lt;xs:documentation&gt;Tmats Root&lt;/xs:documentation&gt; &lt;/xs:annotation&gt; &lt;/xs:element&gt; &lt;/xs:schema&gt; </code></pre> <p>I created classes using Linq to XSD. I then wrote the following test: </p> <pre><code>[TestMethod()] public void TmatsXmlExample4() { Tmats tmats = new Tmats { ProgramName = "My Program", OriginationDate = DateTime.Now, }; tmats.PointOfContact.Add(new PointOfContactType { Address = "12345 Anywhere Street", Agency = "My Agency", Name = "Robert Harvey", Telephone = "111-222-3333" }); Debug.Print(tmats.ToString()); } </code></pre> <p>I expected output that looked something like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Tmats&gt; &lt;TmatsG:ProgramName&gt;My Program&lt;/TmatsG:ProgramName&gt; &lt;TmatsG:OriginationDate&gt;2012-05-09-07:00&lt;/TmatsG:OriginationDate&gt; &lt;TmatsG:PointOfContact&gt; &lt;TmatsCommon:Name&gt;Robert Harvey&lt;/TmatsCommon:Name&gt; &lt;TmatsCommon:Agency&gt;My Agency&lt;/TmatsCommon:Agency&gt; &lt;TmatsCommon:Address&gt;12345 Anywhere Street&lt;/TmatsCommon:Address&gt; &lt;TmatsCommon:Telephone&gt;111-222-3333&lt;/TmatsCommon:Telephone&gt; &lt;/TmatsG:PointOfContact&gt; &lt;/Tmats&gt; </code></pre> <p>Instead, what I got was this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Tmats&gt; &lt;ProgramName xmlns="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsG"&gt;My Program&lt;/ProgramName&gt; &lt;OriginationDate xmlns="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsG"&gt;2012-05-09-07:00&lt;/OriginationDate&gt; &lt;PointOfContact xmlns="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsG"&gt; &lt;Name xmlns="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsCommon"&gt;Robert Harvey&lt;/Name&gt; &lt;Agency xmlns="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsCommon"&gt;My Agency&lt;/Agency&gt; &lt;Address xmlns="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsCommon"&gt;12345 Anywhere Street&lt;/Address&gt; &lt;Telephone xmlns="http://www.spiraltechinc.com/tmats/106-13/TmatsCommon"&gt;111-222-3333&lt;/Telephone&gt; &lt;/PointOfContact&gt; &lt;/Tmats&gt; </code></pre> <p>Is there a way to get LinqToXSD to produce the expected output? </p>

    1. COThanks! - If you're confident that the schema isn't likely to change they you could annotate all of the elements in the `Tmats.cs` file to assist the serializer, but personally I'd just transform it with a stylesheet and leave it be.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
