BizTalk Server 2004 Unleashed Sample Chapter: Building Message Specifications
[Via Patrick, no not that Patrick :-)] Over here you can read a sample chapter of the long awaited BizTalk Server 2004 book "Microsoft Biztalk Server 2004 Unleashed", about designing XSD schema's with the schema editor.
Messaging is the foundation of BizTalk Server, and message schemas are the bedrock on which messaging is built. Schemas are used by the messaging runtime to understand the structure of data messages and find specific fields. The property fields specified by schemas can be used to help route a message to its destination. Messaging is the exchange of structured data, and schemas are where that structure is defined.
