 <div><p>An element reference provides a reference to a global element.
 A declaration that references a global element enables the referenced global
 element to appear in the instance document in the context of the referencing
 declaration.</p>

 <div class="section"><p>The following instructions were written for the Resource perspective,

 <p>To add an element
 reference, follow these steps:</p>
 </div>

 <ol>
 <li class="stepexpand"><span>In the Graph view, right-click the content model you want to work
 with and click <span class="uicontrol">Add Element Ref</span>.</span> If
 no global element is defined in the document, a new global element is created
 for you, and the element reference will point to it.</li>

 <li class="stepexpand"><span>Select the element reference. You can specify the following values
 for an element reference:</span>
 <ul>
 <li><span class="uicontrol">name</span>. Click the name of the element reference
 in the Graph view. Enter the name of the element reference.</li>

 <li><span class="uicontrol">type</span>. Click the element reference type in the
 Graph view. Select a type from the menu, or select <span class="uicontrol">Browse</span> for
 more options.</li>

 </ul>

 </li>

 <li class="stepexpand"><span>(Optional) Select the appropriate value in the <span class="uicontrol">MinOccurs</span> field.</span>
  This is the number of times the global element referenced can appear

 Otherwise, select <span class="uicontrol">1</span>. </li>

 <li class="stepexpand"><span>(Optional) Select the appropriate value in the <span class="uicontrol">MaxOccurs</span> field.</span>
  This is the maximum number of times the global element referenced can
 appear. You can select <span class="uicontrol">unbounded</span> to indicate there
 is no maximum number of occurrences.</li>

 <li class="stepexpand"><span>Click the <span class="uicontrol">Documentation</span> tab if you want
 to provide any information about this element reference.</span> The <span class="uicontrol">Documentation</span> page
