Try this one:

<xsl:template name="NewName">
	<xsl:param name="strRep"/>
	<xsl:variable name="nrdots" select="string-length($strRep) -
string-length(translate($strRep, '.', ''))" />
	<xsl:variable name="format" select="substring('000000000000',1,$nrdots
+ 1)" />
	<xsl:value-of
select="concat($strRep,concat('.',format-number(./@Sequence,$format)))"/>
</xsl:template>
