<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="/">

<xsl:variable name="var" select="//ARTICULO"/>

<xsl:apply-templates select="$var">
    <xsl:sort select="NOMBRE_FAMILIA"/>
</xsl:apply-templates>

</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="ARTICULO">
