Andrew,
This looks OK to me, the () round DATA, VIEW* are redundant, so we have:
<!ELEMENT SMART_DOCUMENT (HEADER , DATA , VIEW* , AUDIT_TRAIL ,
SIGNATURES?)>
<!ELEMENT DATA (MAIN , MAP? , CUSTOM?)>
which I believe is OK. I can only suggest it is due to the () being
wrongly interpreted somewhere. Where are you getting this error
message?
