- can there be many lab tests done on the same day?
- can there be many many days in which one labtest may be carried out??
- or is it that there is one-to-one with lab test and days??

Hi ,

I have the data in the xml file. I want to display the data in crosstab
form. How to write

<row>
    <Labtest>
            <Date> 01/01/2001</Date>
            <LabTestid>L001</LabTestid>
            <value> 100 </value>
    </Labtest>
    <Labtest>
            <Date> 01/02/2001</Date>
            <LabTestid>L002</LabTestid>
            <value> 200 </value>
    </Labtest>
</row>

How to write the xsl to display the date in crosstab. to get the data like

                        01/01/2002            01/02/2002
L001                100
L002                                                200

It depends upon what you want to do really..
string function returns the string value of its arguments
