Home Forums Programming XML if you're using typed xml in sql server 2008, does the xml you store need to have every node that's in the XSD? RE: if you're using typed xml in sql server 2008, does the xml you store need to have every node that's in the XSD?

    You're absolutely correct about required columns (minOccurs).

    I've been leaning toward the hybrid approach, viz., storing frequently used/searched fields as columns then using an xml column to persist the sparsely used fields.
