This transformation:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" 
 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
 
 <xsl:output method="text"/>
  
  <xsl:variable name="vQ">"</xsl:variable>
  
  <xsl:template match="node() | @*">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="node() | @*"/>
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>
  
  <xsl:template match="node">
    <xsl:variable name="vDepth" select="count(ancestor::node) + 1"/>
    <xsl:value-of 
    select="concat('aux', $vDepth, ' = insFld(')"/>

    <xsl:choose>
      <xsl:when test="$vDepth = 1">foldersTree</xsl:when>
      <xsl:otherwise>
        <xsl:value-of select="concat('aux', $vDepth - 1)"/>
      </xsl:otherwise>
    </xsl:choose>

    <xsl:value-of select="concat(', gFld(', $vQ, @value1, $vQ, '))')"/>
    
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

when applied on your source.xml:

<document> 
	<node value1="DB Objects"> 
		<node value1="Andreas"> 
			<node value1="Peter"> 
				<node value1="Kempten"/> 
				<node value1="Ulperting"/> 
			</node> 
			<node value1="Muahhh"/> 
			<node value1="Christoph"> 
				<node value1="Ulperting"/> 
				<node value1="FrankyBoy"> 
					<node value1="Munich"/> 
				</node> 
			</node> 
		</node> 
		<node value1="Christoph"> 
			<node value1="Munich"/> 
			<node value1="FrankyBoy"> 
				<node value1="Kempten"/> 
			</node> 
		</node> 
		<node value1="Frank"/> 
	</node> 
	<node value1="Tables"> 
		<node value1="Andreas"> 
			<node value1="Peter"> 
				<node value1="Munich"/> 
				<node value1="Ulperting"/> 
			</node> 
		</node> 
	</node> 
</document> 

produces the wanted result:


 
	aux1 = insFld(foldersTree, gFld("DB Objects")) 
		aux2 = insFld(aux1, gFld("Andreas")) 
			aux3 = insFld(aux2, gFld("Peter")) 
				aux4 = insFld(aux3, gFld("Kempten")) 
				aux4 = insFld(aux3, gFld("Ulperting")) 
			 
			aux3 = insFld(aux2, gFld("Muahhh")) 
			aux3 = insFld(aux2, gFld("Christoph")) 
				aux4 = insFld(aux3, gFld("Ulperting")) 
				aux4 = insFld(aux3, gFld("FrankyBoy")) 
					aux5 = insFld(aux4, gFld("Munich")) 
				 
			 
		 
		aux2 = insFld(aux1, gFld("Christoph")) 
			aux3 = insFld(aux2, gFld("Munich")) 
			aux3 = insFld(aux2, gFld("FrankyBoy")) 
				aux4 = insFld(aux3, gFld("Kempten")) 
			 
		 
		aux2 = insFld(aux1, gFld("Frank")) 
	 
	aux1 = insFld(foldersTree, gFld("Tables")) 
		aux2 = insFld(aux1, gFld("Andreas")) 
			aux3 = insFld(aux2, gFld("Peter")) 
				aux4 = insFld(aux3, gFld("Munich")) 
				aux4 = insFld(aux3, gFld("Ulperting"))
