Doug,
One way is to use namespace prefixes in the XML instance document - this
helps identify in which schemas elements/attributes are
declared/defined, and it is particularly useful when you are dealing
with multiple schemas and need to trace the "origin" of
elements/attributes.
Format at top of XML instance document would be (this shows only one
schema):
<abc:ThisIsTheRootElement
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.TargetNamespaceURL.com
SchemaFile.xsd"
xmlns:abc="http://www.TargetNamespaceURL.com>
Hope that helps,
Joe Chiusano

I think people like to look at the instance document and see the relevant bits of the schemas than the other way around, perhaps in a frame beside the instance document.
