Schema element name selectable, attributes not

[Alex Sab]

Hi,
I have a XML structure where the element name can be chosen freely but
the element attributes must be all of the same names.

<Node>
<AnyName1 Type="Single" Unit="" Comment="">0</AnyName1>
<AnyName2 Type="Single" Unit="" Comment="">0</AnyName2>
<AnyName3 Type="Single" Unit="" Comment="">0</AnyName3>
<AnyName4 Type="Single" Unit="" Comment="">0</AnyName4>
<AnyName5 Type="Single" Unit="" Comment="">0</AnyName5>
<AnyName6 Type="Single" Unit="" Comment="">0</AnyName6>
</Node>

Is is possible to make a schema that works for any element name? The
schema should not know about AnyName1, AnyName2, ...

Regards,
Alex

You can use
<xs:any />
to specify that an element with any name can occur but I don't think you
can then restrict the attributes that element can have.
