Hi

Is there an easy way to programmtically create an xsd-schema from an xml
file?

Reason .... I create slightly different xml documents in my app, based on
user data. I would like to create a temporary schema files from those xml
documents, in order to use the data in a UI grid. I found the XmlSchema
class, but it would be an overkill to create the schema through this class.

Thanks for any hints, Urs

.NET 2.0 has an InferSchema method of the XmlSchemaInference class in
System.Xml.Schema:
