With xerces 1.3.1 and CR for xml schema when  I imported
the standard http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace for use of xml:lang,
it gets parsed perfect when I use xml spy or turbo xml but with xerces parser it gives 
error :
"Globally defined attributes should have use= default or fixed "
I do not have any attributes in my xml schema, so I guess it is refering to attributes 
defined in xml.xsd mentioned in
schemaLocation in import .
If I do not give schemaLoacation , xerces gives error :
" File "" not found."

Following is the xml snippet :
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd = "http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema";
  elementFormDefault = "qualified">
 <xsd:import namespace = "http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace";
    schemaLocation = "http://www.w3.org/2000/10/xml.xsd"/>

Any help is appreciated,
Komal.
