Michael is correct it can be done with a XSLT stylesheet if the schema
instances are all in the same namespace. I wrote such a stylesheet for
work, but needed to use a SAXON extension to keep track of what had
already been added to the output document. Unfortunately, I currently
can't share this stylesheet, unless work gives me permission.
If you search the XSLT mailing list, you should find some sample code
that I had written that should point you in the general direction.
