You haven't really shown enough of your source data for me to understand what you are doing. > > <xsl:variable name="structured-number" > select="if (position() = 1) > then $family-structured-number > else esd:structured-number(.)"/> Where is this variable declared, and where is it used?

As I say, I don't understand what you mean by "most recent", and I don't see anything in your code that relates to the concept. You seem to be basing the calculation on the first item in the current group. Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
