Marco, either I've not understood the complexity of what you're attempting, or you've unwittingly made it more comples than necessary. If you don't have multiple <division> elements with the same @DID, the following is all you need:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="text"/>


   <xsl:template match="/">
       <xsl:for-each select="company/division">
           <xsl:sort select="@DID"/>

           <xsl:value-of select="@DID"/>
           <xsl:text>&#xa;</xsl:text>

           <xsl:for-each select="employees/employee">
               <xsl:sort select="ENAME"/>

<xsl:value-of select="concat(' ', @EID, ', ', ENAME, ', ', OFFICE)"/>
<xsl:text>&#xa;</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>


</xsl:stylesheet>

<company>
   <division DID="Sal">
      <employees>
		<employee EID="EMP001">
		   <ENAME>Joe Blow</ENAME>
               <OFFICE>1.2.27</OFFICE>
               <BIRTHDATE>1963-08-01</BIRTHDATE>
		   <SALARY>28790</SALARY>
		</employee>
		<employee EID="EMP002">
		   <ENAME>John Doe</ENAME>
               <OFFICE>1.2.2</OFFICE>
               <BIRTHDATE>1970-08-01</BIRTHDATE>
		   <SALARY>29855</SALARY>
		</employee>
	</employees>
   </division>
   <division DID="SOF">
      <employees>
		<employee EID="EMM001">
		   <ENAME>Mark Smith</ENAME>
               <OFFICE>1.2.27</OFFICE>
               <BIRTHDATE>1966-08-01</BIRTHDATE>
		   <SALARY>35000</SALARY>
		</employee>
		<employee EID="EMM002">
		   <ENAME>John Doe</ENAME>
               <OFFICE>1.2.2</OFFICE>
               <BIRTHDATE>1977-08-01</BIRTHDATE>
		   <SALARY>40000</SALARY>
		</employee>
	</employees>
   </division>
</company>



I'm having using a recursive routine (see below) to display the following
elements and attributes:
1) The employee EID attribute such as 'EMP001', followed by
2) The element text of ENAME, such as 'Joe Blow',
3) The element text of OFFICE, such as '1.2.27'
4) The output must be formatted such that the employees of each division are
grouped together.
