"Many" may have implied too many, I'm talking appx 5-10 roundtrips. Necessary roundtrips, pulling data from the database, populating (collecting) certain results into an XML document based on user input. Is there a recommended ASP VB XML XSLT developer mailing list someone could recommend? Thanks for the input. Posting the XML data sounds doable (realizing that I'll need to LoadXML from a form field).
