I want to double-check that I'm following your scenario correctly: You
have a schema, you attach it to a document (Tools/Templates and
Add-ins/XML Schema), then you add the nodes to the document using the XML
Structure task pane. Is my understanding up to this point correct?
At this point, yes, you're certainly getting a validation error.
Now, if you type an integer into a node of this type, does the validation
error go away?
This is "by design", as far as Word + schemas go. If there's nothing in
an element, Word interprets this as a zero-length string. So you won't
get a validation error with a string type. For any other data type, you
have to actually type something into the element so that it can be
converted (by Word - since as far as Word is concerned EVERYTHING is a
string) and validated.
