For seeing what is happening it is useful to do it in two stages,
converting the file to xml and then processing/validating, but that
means serialising and re-parsing the document so you would probably get
better performance by processing the tab delimited file and returning
sax events rather than an xml file then the schma processor can probably
be told that your tab delimited parser is an xml parser and your tab
delimited file is an xml file and it won't know the difference.
