SYMPTOMS
When you use the BizTalk Editor, if there is a value for the Target Namespace property on the Reference tab of a non-XML document specification, document instances may fail to validate against the specification and you may receive an error similar to the following when you attempt document validation:

The XML document has failed validation for the following reason:

Validate failed because the root element had no associated DTD/schema.



CAUSE
In Microsoft BizTalk Server 2000, if you create an XML specification that specifies the Target Namespace property, and then change the specification to a non-XML standard, the Target Namespace value remains.



RESOLUTION
Clear the Target Namespace property for any non-XML document specification.



STATUS
This bug was corrected in Microsoft BizTalk Server 2002.



MORE INFORMATION
BizTalk Server 2002 does not display a Target Namespace property for non-XML documents.
