    I am looking for an XML editor that can be used in a .NET application.  Can XCE be used as such?  Essentially, I want to be able to display a form from my application that contains an XML editor, preferably one that supports validation using an .xsd.

    TIA,
       Welton v3.50

    Hi, sorry about the delay. I'm afraid this wouldn't work without significant re-working. I think you will find that pulling in Scintilla (which I think works fine with .NET) and the .NET validation tools will be your best option.

    Arguably it's still possible to create a great .NET or Java XML editor; the gcc/C++ toolchain offers very little support unfortunately. (Xerces-C is great, for example, but it still lacks crucial methods that Java programmers can take for granted.)
