Values for <xsd:simpleType> Declarations

The following table outlines the restrictions that are applied, based on all recognized XSD simple type enumerations.

Also, SQL Server does not support the NaN value in <xsd:simpleType> declarations. Schemas that include NaN values are rejected by the server.

Simple type

Limitation

duration

The year part has to be within the range of -2^31 to 2^31-1. The month, day, hour, minute, and second must all be within the range of 0 to 9999. The seconds part has an additional three digits of precision to the right of the decimal point.

dateTime

The hour part in the time zone subfield must be within the accepted range of -14 to +14. The year part must be within the range of 1 to 9999. The month part must be within the range of 1 to 12. The day part must be within the range of 1 to 31 and must be a valid calendar date. For example, SQL Server detects and returns an error for an invalid date, such as 1974-02-31, because the month of February does not have 31 days.

The second component supports 100-nanosecond precision. The timezone indication is optional.

SQL Server 2005 supported years in the range -9999 to 9999. SQL Server now supports a more restricted range of years. For more information, see Typed XML Compared to Untyped XML.

date

The year part must be within the range of 1 to 9999. The month part must be within the range of 1 to 12. The day part must be within the range of 1 to 31 and must be a valid calendar date.
