 Here's my document list xml file: ... <nAnnualReport filename="FSUSA00386-FOUSA00H0A.xml" /> I note that you are using relative URI values for your filenames. Here's partial of xsl: ... <xsl:copy-of select="document(@filename)//Date"/> I note that you are omitting the second argument to document(), thus relative URI values are going to be resolved relative to the stylesheet fragment from which the element with the function call was read. It seems document() doesn't work at all. Perhaps the processor is not finding your data files in the same subdirectory as your stylesheet files. I can't figure out what's wrong. Relative URI address resolution is based on the presence/absence of the second argument. If your data files for document() are in the same subdirectory as the start of the XML fragment then use: document( @filename, / ) or if you are using external parsed general entities and it is relative to the element with the filename attribute, use: document( @filename, . ) I hope this helps. .......................
