You sample looks to be quick simple, yet I'm not getting the desired results. Perhaps it's because you're sample XML is quite a bit different than my sample. Here again is my sample (I simplified it further from my previous email)... <Row Type="Data"> <Cell>Mar 23, 2006</Cell> <Cell>08:44</Cell> </Row> So how would your sample XSLT work with my sample XML?
