XSD: The element may not overlap error.

[Paul W. Nelson]

Wondering if anyone with more XML know-how than I can shed some light on this.

I am getting the following error when working with this section of an XSD:

The element '#Exception' may not overlap with another element


Relevant XML here:

    
<xsd:element name="ListResponse">
	<xsd:complexType>
		<xsd:sequence>
			<xsd:choice maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0">
				<xsd:element ref="Exception" />
				<xsd:element ref="MetaData" />
			</xsd:choice>
			<xsd:choice maxOccurs="1" minOccurs="0">
				<xsd:element ref="Exception" />
				<xsd:element ref="ColumnStatistics" />
			</xsd:choice>
			<xsd:choice maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0">
				<xsd:element ref="Exception" />
				<xsd:element ref="DomainEntity" />
			</xsd:choice>
		</xsd:sequence>
		<xsd:attribute name="name" type="xsd:string" use="required" />
	</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>

Obviously it is unhappy with the Exception element being present in multiple choices. Is there a way to recode this and still preserve the intent?

Thanks,

Paul
