We have a keyword called xs:key in XML Schema to define unique elements that are not null. This will ensure that values are not repeated and that they are unique. To use xs:key we need to understand xs:selector and xs:field.If you would like to define a unique element that can be null it could be done using xs:unique keyword.For knowing more please refer to my article at http://technologyandleadership.com/xml-sch...y-and-xskeyref/

Hey its not hard. It is very easy. If you try this code it will not allow repeating values for Paz:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><xs:schema elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">	<xs:element name="StatussR">		<xs:complexType>			<xs:sequence>				<xs:element name="Paz" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>			</xs:sequence>		</xs:complexType>		<xs:key name="keyPAZ">			<xs:selector xpath="StatussR"/>			<xs:field xpath="Paz"/>		</xs:key>	</xs:element></xs:schema>

Thank you for your answer! Looks hard, but enivey it is a solution
