Using TransX to load data -- unsuccessful

Question

Hi everybody,
I am trying to use TransX to load into the database some sample data provided by Oracle, but the attempt is unsuccessful. First, I have the following sample XML schema registered successfully into Oracle:
XML Schema:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xdb="http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified" xdb:mapUnboundedStringToLob="false" xdb:storeVarrayAsTable="false" targetNamespace="http://www.oracle.com/Department" xmlns:dept="http://www.oracle.com/Department">
     <xs:element name="Department" type="dept:DepartmentType" xdb:defaultTable="DEPARTMENT_OBJECTS"/>
     <xs:complexType name="DepartmentType">
          <xs:sequence>
               <xs:element name="ID" type="xs:positiveInteger"/>
               <xs:element name="Name">
                    <xs:simpleType>
                         <xs:restriction base="xs:string">
                              <xs:minLength value="0"/>
                              <xs:maxLength value="60"/>
                         </xs:restriction>
                    </xs:simpleType>
               </xs:element>
               <xs:element name="Location">
                    <xs:simpleType>
                         <xs:restriction base="xs:string">
                              <xs:minLength value="0"/>
                              <xs:maxLength value="100"/>
                         </xs:restriction>
                    </xs:simpleType>
               </xs:element>
               <xs:element name="Employees" type="dept:EmployeesType"/>
          </xs:sequence>
     </xs:complexType>
     <xs:complexType name="EmployeesType" xdb:SQLType="EMPS_TYPE">
          <xs:sequence maxOccurs="unbounded">
               <xs:element name="Employee" type="dept:EmployeeType" xdb:defaultTable="EMPLOYEE_OBJECTS" xdb:SQLInline="false"/>
          </xs:sequence>
     </xs:complexType>
     <xs:complexType name="EmployeeType" xdb:SQLType="EMP_TYPE">
          <xs:sequence>
               <xs:element name="EmployeeID" type="xs:positiveInteger"/>
               <xs:element name="FirstName">
                    <xs:simpleType>
                         <xs:restriction base="xs:string">
                              <xs:minLength value="0"/>
                              <xs:maxLength value="30"/>
                         </xs:restriction>
                    </xs:simpleType>
               </xs:element>
               <xs:element name="LastName">
                    <xs:simpleType>
                         <xs:restriction base="xs:string">
                              <xs:minLength value="0"/>
                              <xs:maxLength value="30"/>
                         </xs:restriction>
                    </xs:simpleType>
               </xs:element>
               <xs:element name="Salary">
                    <xs:simpleType>
                         <xs:restriction base="xs:decimal">
                              <xs:fractionDigits value="2"/>
                              <xs:totalDigits value="10"/>
                         </xs:restriction>
                    </xs:simpleType>
               </xs:element>
          </xs:sequence>
     </xs:complexType>
</xs:schema>
Then I use this Oracle provided sample XML file and try to load it into Oracle using TransX:
Sample Department XML ("adept.xml"):
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Department xmlns:xdb="http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.oracle.com/Department
http://www.oracle.com/deparment.xsd" >
<ID>100</ID>
<Name>AskTomDepartment</Name>
<Location>Reston, VA</Location>
<Employees>
<Employee>
<EmployeeID>1</EmployeeID>
<FirstName>Tom</FirstName>
<LastName>Kyte</LastName>
<Salary>100</Salary>
</Employee>
<Employee>
<EmployeeID>3</EmployeeID>
<FirstName>Cameron</FirstName>
<LastName>ORourke</LastName>
<Salary>10</Salary>
</Employee>
<Employee>
<EmployeeID>2</EmployeeID>
<FirstName>Sean</FirstName>
<LastName>Dillon</LastName>
<Salary>1</Salary>
</Employee>
</Employees>
</Department>
This is the Java command I used to invoke TransX:
java oracle.xml.transx.loader "machinename:1521:abc" someuser somepasswd adept.xml
The error message I received is:
TXU-0114: DLF parse error (Can not find definition for element 'Department') on line 3, character 4 in 'adept.xml'
However, when I query the user_xml_tables table, the Department schema and the Department element is listed, so the TransX loading process should be able to find the definition of the element 'Department':
SQL> select table_name, xmlschema, element_name from user_xml_tables;
TABLE_NAME
XMLSCHEMA
ELEMENT_NAME
DEPARTMENT_OBJECTS
http://www.oracle.com/Department
Department
What am I doing wrong? Can anybody try to register the XML schema above, then try to use to TransX command listed above to load in the "adept.xml" file and see if it's successful? I am using Oracle 9i.
Thanks in advance for any comments/suggestions.

Hi,
I found the problem.It was because of the connection string.The format was different for oracle tables.
PFB the format
*cnss.open"Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle.1;Data Source= servername:port/SID;Database= DB;User Id=aaaa;Password=aaaa;"*
And thanks *SH* for quick response.
So closing the thread......
Thanks,
