XML Schema not being friendly!

I keep getting the following error:

Code:

- Error Code : -1072898028
- Reason     : Element 'Result' is unexpected according to content model of pare
nt element 'FinalResults'.
Expecting: FileInfo.
- Character  : 159
- Line       : 1
- Column     : 160

When I try to validate this (trimmed) XML file:

Code:

  <?xml version="1.0" ?> 
- <FinalResults>
- <Result>
  <Product>AhnLab-V3</Product> 
  <Version>2008.3.4.0</Version> 
  <Date>2008.03.10</Date> 
  <Answer>-</Answer> 
  </Result>
- <FileInfo>
  <FileSize>File size: 56 bytes</FileSize> 
  <MD5>MD5: cf0c5e881da2d470f6dcdd825f38ec69</MD5> 
  <SHA1>SHA1: 3d8c7b5e25027d842287aa96321445ba2ca99167</SHA1> 
  <PEiD>PEiD: -</PEiD> 
  </FileInfo>
  </FinalResults>

Using this Schema:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
	<xs:element name="FinalResults">
		<xs:complexType>
			<xs:sequence>
				<xs:element name="Result">
					<xs:complexType>
						<xs:sequence>
							<xs:element name="Product" type="xs:string"/>
							<xs:element name="Version" type="xs:string"/>
							<xs:element name="Date" type="xs:string"/>
							<xs:element name="Answer" type="xs:string"/>
						</xs:sequence>
					</xs:complexType>
				</xs:element>
				<xs:element name="FileInfo">
					<xs:complexType>
						<xs:sequence>
							<xs:element name="FileSize" type="xs:string"/>
							<xs:element name="MD5" type="xs:string"/>
							<xs:element name="SHA1" type="xs:string"/>
							<xs:element name="PEiD" type="xs:string"/>
						</xs:sequence>
					</xs:complexType>
				</xs:element>
			</xs:sequence>
		</xs:complexType>
	</xs:element>
</xs:schema

Apologies for the long post but I only kept what was necessary. I'm pretty new to XML (Second Day!) so I really don't know what's happening here.

Ugh I fixed it. The following line should have read:

Code:

<xs:element name="Result" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">

I think having 'Result' appear more then once threw the Schema who only expected it appear once. The new bit tells it to expect it numerous times.

Can someone confirm/deny this?

have u tried this?

<xs:sequence minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">

with this, the list becomes an unordered list
