Not to worry, Cyril. The data you get from the third party declares its own a default namespace in the schema instance:
<rptTransmit xmlns="http://www.foo.ca/XMLSchemas "
:
</rptTransmit>

Thanks Michael and Anne T.
Just to consolidate my understanding about namespaces I think this is where
I was confused.
In my XML Data when there is no namespace prefix in the xml tag (for
<rptTransmit/>), doesn't it use the default namespace? I figured since my
default namespace has no definition of any element called rptTransmit, this
would be invalid.
I saw from your example you use a reference eg ref="foo:rptTransmit" or
ref="i:rptTransmit" with the prefix , should this prefix appear in the XML
Data I am creating ie <foo:rptTransmit> instead of just <rptTransmit>? Or is
the latter valid? I'm having trouble understanding how the parser would know
that the <rptTransmit> is from the external XSD since it has no prefix for
the namespace.

Something like this:
<xs:schema>
<xs:import namespace="http://www.foo.ca/XMLSchemas"
schemaLocation="http://www.foo.ca/XMLSchemas/UAT/Transmit.xsd"/>
<xs:element name="myrpt">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="id"/>
<xs:element name="status"/>
<xs:element ref="i:rptTransmit" xmlns:i="http://www.foo.ca/XMLSchemas"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>
That's just a sketch leaving out all the noise, but I hope you get the idea.
