Why no error message when xs:include fails?   

Hi,

To validate XML against an XMLSchema in MSXML6 i use the Schema Cache. My 
XMLSchema ('example.xsd') contains an 'include' of another XMLSchema:

    <xsd:include schemaLocation="whatever.xsd"></xsd:include>

To add my schema to the schema cache i do this:

  XMLDOMSchemaCache := CoXMLSchemaCache60.Create();
  XMLDOMSchemaCache.add('', 'example.xsd');

When the included XMLSchema "whatever.xsd" does *not* exists, *no* exception 
is raised when i add "example.xsd". Why is this? How can i be sure the 
included schema is actually included?

thanks,

Have you set
   XMLDOMSchemaCache.validateOnLoad = true
before adding the schema?
