I'll try and simplify. Complicated version (sorry Agnes :-) ) in my previous
mail.

XML:
		<ABC>       			1st level
			<BCD>			2nd level
				<EFG>123</EFG>  lower levels
			</BCD>
			<BCD>	
				<EFG>456</EFG>
			</BCD>
		</ABC>

and without knowing the tag names try to get 
1) tag-names for descendants of the 2nd level tag (in this case BCD) which
don't themselves have descendants (ie. the lowest level in the hierarchy).
Result: EFG  (but only one time)
2) the values of all tags that don't have descendants. Result: 123 456  (i
think this bit is OK)

What I'm getting is: EFGEFG 123456   
What I want is: EFG 123456
                       

Obviously because of the for-each which iterates 2 times.  How do I limit it
to 1st Occurrance of my "level-2" tag and it's decendants. Can I have two
template matches and how would I describe the path ?

	<xsl:template match="/">
			<xsl:for-each select="?//*[not(*)]">	 ???stuck
here???
				<xsl:value-of select="local-name()"/>	
			</xsl:for-each> 

			<xsl:for-each select=".//*[not(*)]">	    Getting
Values OK
				<xsl:value-of select="node()"/>	
 	  	</xsl:template>

Hopefully a bit clearer ! 
 
Thanks in advance,

Robin
