Wendell, thanks for the response. Technically I can probably put the lookup table in the input source since I'm getting it back from a Database Query. One other question, is there any way to use XPath to eliminate duplicates from a Node Set. Since my XML I'm dealing with looks something like: <DGS> <BOOKMARKS> <TABLE> <BMTABLE>CMSCASE</BMTABLE> </TABLE> <TABLE> <BMTABLE>CMSCASE</BMTABLE> </TABLE> <TABLE> <BMTABLE>CMSCASE</BMTABLE> </TABLE> <TABLE> <BMTABLE>CMSCASE</BMTABLE> </TABLE> <TABLE> <BMTABLE>EMPREP</BMTABLE> </TABLE> <TABLE> <BMTABLE>EMPREP</BMTABLE> </TABLE> </BOOKMARKS> </DGS> Is there anyway to get a TABLE nodeset that would just return the following using XPATH: <TABLE> <BMTABLE>CMSCASE</BMTABLE> <BMTABLE>EMPREP</BMTABLE> </TABLE> I'll keep looking for an interface to a processor that supports the document() function as that is the easiest way I can see in getting this to work (the site this will be implemented on is using XALAN so I don't have to worry about it when its in production). ===== "...there is nothing stranger than people." - Anonymous XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
