I've trying to work on this XSL transformation but I am running into a wall.
Can some help me get started?



Here's a site that has good info grouping and other stuff... was very helpful to me in doing something similar to what you want:

Of course, that would generally give you alpha-based entries only for the existing nodes.
Another option, since you have a limited and predefined grouping space would be to do something like (not working code here, just a suggestion):
<xsl:variable name="alpha" select="'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'"/>
<xsl:template name="organize">
<xsl:call-template name="orgnize-recurse">
<xsl:with-param select="$alpha"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>


<xsl:template name="organize-recurse">
<xsl:param name="alpha-list"/>
<xsl:variable name="first" select="substring($alpha-list,1,1)"/>
<xsl:variable name="rest" select="substring-after($alpha-list, $first)/>
<entry><xsl:attribute name="$first"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="/XML/row[substring(@Keyword,1,1)=substring($alpha-cur,1,1)]"/>
</entry>
<xsl:call-template name="organize-recurse">
<xsl:with-param name="alpha-list" select="$rest"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:template>


Add template to show individual entry......

hope this helps a little.
