More confusion. I think it is v2.6 onwards that supports 1999/XSL/Transform
At this point they changed the ProgID from Microsoft.xmldom to
Msxml2.DOMDocument and the name of the dll to msxml2.dll.
When they brought out the March web release I guess they thought it was so
close they decided to call it version 3 and changed the dll name to
msxml3.dll. However the ProgID remained Msxml2.DOMDocument

So depending on where you are standing depends wether it is MSXML3 (file
level msxml3.dll) or  MSXML2 (programming level Msxml2.DOMDocument ProgID)
or MSXML 3.0(marketing). MSXML3 doesn't exist except as the name of a file.
The product is MSXML v3.0
So if by MSXML3 you mean MSXML v3.0 then you suppose wrong because MSXML
v2.6 supports 1999/XSL/Transform too.

Although I might be wrong.
