Yes, it was ..S.. And not X. Well, to be clear: MSXML (msxml*.dll) is the library that provides the XML processing functionality, including parsing and XSLT processing. It can't be used on its own, but you can invoke its functions from within your own code, or from code that runs within Internet Explorer. IE5 and up come with some version of MSXML, which you can replace or supplement with newer versions. MSXSL (msxsl.exe) is an executable program that you can obtain from the MSDN site. It allows you to invoke MSXML's XSLT processing routines from the command line. It doesn't provide the routines itself; it just wraps / provides an interface to the ones that are relevant to XSL. So, the WROX books might not be in the wrong. They may be assuming you are invoking MSXML via your own programs or via VBScript or JavaScript within an HTML document loaded by Internet Explorer. - Mike ____________________________________________________________________________ mike j. brown | xml/xslt: http://skew.org/xml/ denver/boulder, colorado, usa | resume: http://skew.org/~mike/resume/ XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
