how to reference MSH_25_GLO_DEF schema from other assembly/schema - biztalk

Question

I've built an assembly with the BTAHL7V2X schemas (MSH_25_GLO_DEF, etc).
In another assembly, I need to create a schema, where one of the elements is of type MSH_25_GLO_DEF.
In my BTAHL7V2XCommon assembly I have:
<xs:schema xmlns:b="http://schemas.microsoft.com/BizTalk/2003" xmlns="http://microsoft.com/HealthCare/HL7/2X" targetNamespace="http://microsoft.com/HealthCare/HL7/2X" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:appinfo>
<b:schemaInfo root_reference="MSH_25_GLO_DEF" xmlns:b="http://schemas.microsoft.com/BizTalk/2003" />
</xs:appinfo>
</xs:annotation>
<xs:element name="MSH_25_GLO_DEF">
...
In my other assembly, I have a schema that look like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<xs:schema xmlns="http://mycompany.com/Custom/HL7/2X" xmlns:b="http://schemas.microsoft.com/BizTalk/2003" xmlns:ns0="http://microsoft.com/HealthCare/HL7/2X" targetNamespace="http://mycompany.com/Custom/HL7/2X" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:import schemaLocation="BTAHL7Schemas.MSH_25_GLO_DEF" namespace="http://mycompany.com/Custom/HL7/2X"/>
<xs:include schemaLocation="ORU_R01_23_GLO_DEF.xsd" />
<xs:annotation>
<xs:appinfo>
<b:schemaInfo standards_version="HL7.DBVersion.1_5" document_type="HL7 2X Schema" version="2.0.0104.0.2.0" root_reference="ORU_R01_23_GLO_DEF" xmlns:b="http://schemas.microsoft.com/BizTalk/2003" />
<b:references>
<b:reference targetNamespace="http://mycompany.com/Custom/HL7/2X/2.3/ORU/DataTypes" />
<b:reference targetNamespace="http://microsoft.com/HealthCare/HL7/2X" />
<b:reference targetNamespace="http://mycompany.com/Custom/HL7/2X/2.3/ORU/Segments" />
<b:reference targetNamespace="http://mycompany.com/Custom/HL7/2X/2.3/ORU/Tables" />
</b:references>
</xs:appinfo>
</xs:annotation>
<xs:element name="ORU_R01_23_ALL">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" name="MSH_25_GLO_DEF" type="ns0:MSH_25_GLO_DEF" />
<xs:element minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" ref="ORU_R01_23_GLO_DEF" />
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>
I've added a reference to the BTAHL7V2X assembly which contains the MSH header and I can see the MSH_25_GLO_DEF if I view the referenced assembly in the object browser, but I always get an error stating "http://microsoft.com/HealthCare/HL7/2X:MSH_25_GLO_DEF is not declared, when I view my schema.
I've also tried changing the imports reference to an include:
<xs:include schemaLocation="BTAHL7Schemas.MSH_25_GLO_DEF" />
but get a different error when vieweing the schema:
The targetNamespace 'http://microsoft.com/HealthCare/HL7/2X' of included/redefined schema should be the same as the targetNamespace 'http://mycompany.com/Custom/HL7/2X' of the including schema.
Is there a proper way to reference BizTalk schema in another assembly?
