<shortdesc>If you make changes to a DTD file or XML schema associated with
an XML file (that is currently open), click <uicontrol>XML > Reload Dependencies</uicontrol> to
update the XML file with these changes. The changes will be reflected in the
guided editing mechanisms available in the editor, such as content assist.</shortdesc>

<taskbody>
<context><p>For example, you have a DTD file called "Contact.dtd" and an XML
file called "Contact.xml" associated with it. Contact.dtd contains a root
element called  <uicontrol>Contact</uicontrol> that can contain any of the
following children elements:  <uicontrol>Name</uicontrol>,  <uicontrol>PostalAddress</uicontrol>,
 <uicontrol>Email</uicontrol>. If you remove the child element  <uicontrol>Email</uicontrol> from
the DTD, you will no longer be able to add an  <uicontrol>Email</uicontrol> child
element to your root element Contact in your Contact.xml file. This change,
however, will not come into effect until you save your changes in the DTD
and click <uicontrol>XML > Reload Dependencies</uicontrol> in the XML editor.
Until you click it, you will still be able to add <uicontrol>Email</uicontrol> elements
to Contact.xml.</p><p>This feature is very handy when you are making updates
to both DTDs and XML schemas and XML files that are associated with DTDs and
XML schemas.</p></context>
