I don't view XSLT as a search tool, I view it as a transformation tool. If you are using MS products, I'd either use SQL Server 2000 (you can get a free version of the database engine) or one of the emerging XML databases and do your querying there before doing your transformations. You don't want to ask IIS to act as a database, querying 250 thousand documents when requests are made, and you don't want your XSLT processor, whether MSXML or anyone else, generating 250,000 trees in response to a user request, unless you've invented some wonderful caching system you'd like to share with us all. Unless I'm not understanding the question. regards, Chuck White The Tumeric Partnership http://www.tumeric.net chuck@xxxxxxxxxxx ________________________________________ Author, Mastering XML, Premium Edition Sybex Books, May, 2001 http://www.javertising.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrew Welch" <andrew@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <XSL-List@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, December 17, 2001 9:03 AM Subject: [xsl] General Searching query > Hi, > > Imagine the scene: > > You have around 20,000 xml files, all around 10k in size.
