What do you want to do, exactly? You don't have to "register" a DCR but a DCR has a certain native characteristic that a simple XML file does not. I assume you're already familiar with the DTD and format that the DCR should take.

The characteristic to which I am referring is the extended attribute. Minimally, your XML file should have an extended attribute called "TeamSite/Templating/DCR/Type". This allows for the XML file to be edited through a DCT and subsequently, generated with a registered PT. I believe this accomplishes what you're looking for, but if not, please clarify.

Does this custom XML have a DTD?
If so - RTFM regarding creating DCTs from DTDs - once you have the DCT, then you can create XML files from it which will be considered DCRs.
A pre-existing XML file that conforms to the DTD which was used to create the DCT can then be identified as a DCR by setting the appropriate TeamSite Extended Attributes on it (if you don't know what those are - RTFM, Search the forums, Take some training)

WOW, okay, so usually I'm more liberal with the "RTFM" but I guess I'm feeling guilty for not having posted much lately.
