Excellent. Thanks Rick.

I didn't get the sch:value-of evaluated in the property in the SVRL though.
Is there any preprocessing I need to do to fix this or maybe it is a defect?
Anyway, thanks for your help getting things working and I'll ask any more
questions on the Scematron list. Suffice to say it lends weight to Roger's
article which, especially with the introduction of the properties, makes it
look likely you can do some neat logic-machine / proof-machine work with
just the latest Schematron, XML and an XSLT 2 processor.

Best regards

Steve
