keys might make your stylesheet more readable and easier to maintain,
<xsl:key name="old" match="oldpayments/oldpayment" use="@payno" />
<xsl:template match="newpayment">
Payno: <xsl:value-of select="@Payno"/>
Amount: <xsl:value-of select="@amount"/>
<xsl:if test="key('old', @Payno)">
Ref: <xsl:value-of select="key('old', @Payno)/@ref"/>
</xsl:if>
<br/>
</xsl:template>
But as Oleg said, using current() will get you there, too.
Cheers,
Jarno
