Hello
XML is an extensible object description language and XSD is not an XML derivative, but an implementation of the XML extensibility as a replacement for DTD. It is finally nothing else than an XML file following the validation schema of itself ( <http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema> http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema). Being XML you can load it into an XML field in PostgreSQL just like any other XML document (e.g. xml, wsdl, xslt, soap, etc.). You can find a possible way on how to do it here: http://www.schmiedewerkstatt.ch/wiki/index.php/PostgreSQL:_Writing_text,_xml_content_into_a_field Bye Charles From: pgsql-general-ow...@postgresql.org [mailto:pgsql-general-ow...@postgresql.org] On Behalf Of David G.

I've googled about this but have found no satisfactory answer. Perhaps I just don't know what exactly to ask Google. So please: - What tool can I use in order to import .XSD schema definitions into Postgresql 9.4.5? - If there is no tool, can you please direct me to a document at least hinting at how to import a .XSD schema into a DB? Thanks and happy new year to all. ​So, you are basically looking for an XSD to SQL converter, potentially with knowledge of PostgreSQL implementation specifics​. No clue - though like Adrian said the source of the XSD file would ideally have meaningful knowledge of how to actually use it. David J.
