"Messages" problem after importing .xsd file as external definition

Question

Hello,
I received an .xsd file from a customer and need to import it as an "External Definition" in order to create the "Message Interface". The structure of the xsd looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:px="http://www.opentrans.org/XMLSchema/1.0" targetNamespace="http://www.opentrans.org/XMLSchema/1.0" elementFormDefault="qualified">
<xsd:element name="ORDER">
</xsd:element>
<xsd:element name="ADDRESS">
</xsd:element>
<xsd:element name="ARTICLE_ID">
</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>
After importing and looking at the tab "Messages" I get numerous entries, for each <xsd:element> I get one message! But I basically only need one "Message" that holds my complete xsd-file.
I tried inserting <xsd:element name="COMPLETEORDER"> right after the <xsd:schema>-Tag but that didn't work either. Somehow I need to sum up all the <xsd:elements>.
Does anyone have an idea? Thank you very much!
Peter

Hello Prateek, Hello everyone,
I now know what the problem is. I downloaded XMLspy and checked on the structure:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:px="http://www.opentrans.org/XMLSchema/1.0" targetNamespace="http://www.opentrans.org/XMLSchema/1.0" elementFormDefault="qualified">
<xsd:element name="ORDER">
</xsd:element>
<xsd:element name="ADDRESS">
</xsd:element>
<xsd:element name="ARTICLE_ID">
</xsd:element>
<xsd:simpleType name="dtBOOLEAN">
</xsd:simpleType>
<xsd:simpleType name="dtCOUNTRIES">
</xsd:simpleType>
<xsd:element name="SUPPLIER_AID">
</xsd:element>
<xsd:simpleType name="typeSUPPLIER_AID">
</xsd:simpleType>
</xsd:schema>
Between the long list of <xsd:element> tags there are some simpleTypes on the same
level. Now if I insert
<xsd:element name="COMPLETEORDER">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
on top, the <xsd:sequence> would be on the same level as the simpleTypes - which is not valid!
But can I just move all the simpleTypes, e.g. into an <xsd:element>??
That would be changing the customer's structure which I think is not a good thing!?
Thank you again for your help! I really appreciate it!
Best regards,
Peter
