Now my xsl reads like this: <xsl:variable name="qq">.</xsl:variable> <xsl:for-each select="//C03//CORPNAME"> <xsl:variable name="getit" select="."/> <xsl:variable name="pvnum" select="..//@ID"/> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="contains($getit, $qq) and substring(substring-after($getit, $qq), 2, 1)=$qq"> <TR> <TD><xsl:value-of select="."/></TD> </TR> </xsl:when> </xsl:choose> </xsl:for-each> I got it and it works. I am a little bleary-eyed (small font!), but thanks. Mike F. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!
