Thanks for the follow-up... The select statement was nice to see in this video... I would have used it in the first video as well.

I've bought a lot of books and read a lot of websites but this information is just not out there. Sincere thanks!

Just a quick note – when changing an xml schema, an alternative to dropping tables is to alter the tables and modify any columns using the xml schema to be untyped xml columns. Then drop the xml schema, create the new xml schema collection and alter the tables again changing the columns to use the new xml schema.
