(I know you know that, just making it clearer) For the app I'm currently working on, I use very simple small xqueries which are there purely to provide input to the transforms, just because I'm forced to. Once XSLT can work directly directly against the database, XQuery's days could be numbered. -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com Kernow: http://kernowforsaxon.sf.net/
