Barry,

If you're really obsessive-compulsive (or maybe just a little manic),

<xsl:if test='not(Root/Amount = "null")'>
  <xsl:value-of select="Root/Amount"/>
</xsl:if>

can be simplified to

<xsl:value-of select="Root/Amount[not(.='null')]"/>

according to the same logic ... one of the fun things about XPath is how, in particular document contexts, it can be used to drive conditionals.

Cheers,
Wendell

Thanks guys,

<xsl:apply-templates select="$xml-node[not(.='null')]"/>
