Re: Variable access

Sure. If you change the way that you think about the problem, it
becomes a lot more obvious what the XSLT solution is. Instead of
saying *how* you want to get the result that you want, specify *what*
the result that you want is. In your case, think of it as:

  "I want to work out whether any of the OIDMapping elements have an
   ActionString element child whose value is 'Cleared'. If they do,
   then I want to say 'YES'; if they don't I want to say 'NO'"

You can test whether there are any OIDMapping elements whose
ActionString element child is 'Cleared' by trying to select them:

  MsgLevel/OIDInfo/OIDMapping[ActionString = 'Cleared']

So a solution is simply:

<xsl:template name="Call_ClearedBySystemMapped">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="MsgLevel/OIDInfo/OIDMapping
                     [ActionString = 'Cleared']">
      <xsl:text>YES</xsl:text>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>
      <xsl:text>NO</xsl:text>
    </xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

Cheers,
