Does anyone know of a good tool for reverse engineering an XML document to get the schema?

You won't get a very good schema that way.

It's like trying reverse engineer someones arsehole from a turd.

But if you must:

Just download the schema specified by the SchemaLocation attribute in the document..

That analogy is a bit too close for comfort

Bookmarked. Nice find.

You might find OxygenXML useful for this as well.
What's more there's a not very widely used schema language called XDefinition, which basically uses instance documents to describe schema rules and from there you could perhaps move to a more popular one like RelaxNG.
But in any case what the problem with you having a quick look to see if thee isn't an existing one, or failing that, writing a new one, sort of manually?
