Hi mike,

Ah yes, that was one of my other tries i.e. 
<xsl:value-of
> 
select="//NUIS3:DWELLING_TAB_V_KEYS/@NUIS3:POLICY_
ID"/>

But it still doesn't work. There is a definite 
problem with the namespace. Since if I remove 
NUIS3: from everything then it all works. So 
syntactically everything seems ok. The namespace 
is declared in the stylesheet after the default 
namespace. I'm also wondering if it is MSXML3 and 
the way that it is parseing.

Regards
Bill
