For seeing what is happening it is useful to do it in two stages, 
converting the file to xml and then processing/validating, but that 
means serialising and re-parsing the document so you would probably get 
better performance by processing the tab delimited file and returning 
sax events rather than an xml file then the schma processor can probably 
be told that your tab delimited parser is an xml parser and your tab 
delimited file is an xml file and it won't know the difference.
