Hi Paul

A similar question was asked on the DITA Users list last week. In answering that query, Don Day provided the following link that explains how to associate a schema with DITA content, and advising that all the DITA schema files are provided with the DITA Open Toolkit.

I am unaware of any DITA documentation projects using Visual Studio, but that’s not to say there aren’t any! Likewise, I am unaware of DITA authoring plug-ins or extensions to Visual Studio. I use Visual Studio for some non-DITA work, and my personal opinion is that it’s not the right tool for DITA authoring. I have used VS for an ASP.Net project involving DITA content, but the content was always authored outside Visual Studio.

Regards

Tony Self

Are any of you folk aware of any projects going on that may support DITA authoring in Visual Studio? Thanks!

I'm new to the group, so I don't know if you are the right people to answer this question. Feel free to point me to another group if you know of one.

My question is about the VS2010 XML Editor.
I am trying to set it up to use the DITA Schema or DTD for intellisense.
Has anyone successfully implemented DITA in the VS 2010 XML Editor?
