I know it is a dead end so please stop flogging a dead horse by mentioning it. All I wanted was ideas on how to do something I've not done in the past and not be spoken down to. Hi Mario, Since I am the one that started the 1.1 vs 2.0 discussion, I want to mention this once more (whether you take the advice or not is up to you of course). The xsl:document was introduced to output to multiple document streams. XSLT 2.0 has embraced that principle, still, but has called it xsl:result-document. You don't have to drop anything, simply change one or two statements in your stylesheet (and you already use Saxon 8.x, you said). When you go down that path and want to see how deep and fun the rabbit hole is, we are all happy to help you. But when it is uphill with an old trainwagon in the backpack, with abandoned technology that is, then both you and your project are facing a tough climb. Even then, it might be that some people out here still remember some bits and pieces of the long-forgotten 1.1 specification, so please don't feel offended, just ask (but the response will likely be lower than with 1.0 or 2.0, or a new thread is started to point you again to the merits of new technology). About my original advice, I really don't know if XSLT 1.1 has dropped the tedious RTF, but if they did, you can use the pipeline technique I presented tp make your overall matching process easier. Otherwise, just as with 1.0, you'll have to resort to node-set extension functions (which can get heavy). 2700 files in 40 minutes? I wonder if with some help we can help you bring that down to several minutes instead. But that would be with 2.0 of course ;) Cheers, -- Abel Braaksma
