Not quite last...

The XSLT Standard Library (XSLTSL) has a date-time module that parses and formats date-time values. It is a pure-XSLT (1.0) template library, and works just fine with MSXML (as well as all other XSLT processors, 1.0 or 2.0).

may have what u  need, note u will have to check with whatever XSLT
processor that they support the exslt function or import the specific
xslt implementation (if one exists).

You can, as others wrote, use Saxon with .NET.
If you are stuck with Microsoft's offerings then their is an msxsl:
format-date extension if you're using MSXML (the COM library). Using
Xsl(Compiled)Transform you have a choice of using extension functions
written in .NET, using extension objects, inline code in .NET or JavaScript,
writing your own string manipulation or using a third-party XSLT based
library.

Does MS has a XSLT 2.0 version? This page says they dont?
http://blogs.msdn.com/xmlteam/archive/2007/01/29/ xslt-2-0.aspx#5274169


Gurus please confirm!

Is there a XSLT 2.0 parser out there that works on .net?

Thanks,

You will have to use string manipulation to do this. (e.g.,
substring-before(), substring-after(), etc.)

Thanks Ken for your quick reply.

I used the following page to determine the XSLT version and it came out
version 3 of MSXML2 in Replace mode:
http://www.bayes.co.uk/xml/index.xml?/xml/utils/instalmsxml.xml


However when I used the XslCompiledTransform.Transform to tranform my
file,
the version came out 1. How can I point my .net code to use XSLT 2.0?


Is there a way I can do the date formating in XSLT 1.0?

Thanks,
-Waqar

How can I format the dat-time field to MMDDYYYY format?

In XSLT 2.0 you use format-dateTime:


http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/REC-xslt20-20070123/#format-date

Also numeric fields to 999v99 format?

Not sure what that format is ... can you explain what kind of number is
the
source for that rendering?

How can I determine which version of XSLT is installed on my machine.

You get a string value representing a number in return to the function:


system-property('xsl:version')

I hope this helps.
