Although XML Authority automatically checks for errors on a regular basis, the Check for Errors menu option, if selected, will immediately check the schema for errors.  Error information is displayed in the Element Types window; a red indicator appears next to an element type declaration with an error. When the error-checking is finished, it will bring up a dialog like that shown below in Figure C.
