Issue with Complex type with content type SIMPLE 


I am having problems trying to access the content of an element. Any idea what I should do? 


>> example.Field[0].Name #works 
status 

>> example.Field[0].Value #doesn't work 
>> example.Field[0].Value.value #doesn't work 
>> example.Field[0].Value.ReferenceValue #doesn't work 


Here is the snippet of the xml and xsd: 

xml: 
  <Field Name="status"> 
    <Value ReferenceValue="Some Ref Value">Open</Value> 
  </Field> 

xsd>: 
  <xs:element name="Field" maxOccurs="unbounded"> 
    <xs:annotation> 
      <xs:documentation>A single field.</xs:documentation> 
    </xs:annotation> 
    <xs:complexType> 
      <xs:sequence> 
        <xs:element name="Value" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"> 
          <xs:annotation> 
            <xs:documentation>The current value of the field in this entity instance. Multi-value fields contain multi-value elements. Reference fields contain the ReferenceValue attribute.</xs:documentation> 
          </xs:annotation> 
          <xs:complexType> 
            <xs:simpleContent> 
              <xs:extension base="xs:string"> 
                <xs:attribute name="ReferenceValue" type="xs:string" use="optional"/> 
              </xs:extension> 
            </xs:simpleContent> 
          </xs:complexType> 
        </xs:element> 
      </xs:sequence> 
      <xs:attribute name="Name" type="xs:string" use="required"> 
        <xs:annotation> 
          <xs:documentation>The field name.</xs:documentation> 
        </xs:annotation> 
      </xs:attribute> 
    </xs:complexType> 
  </xs:element>
