The other consideration was, should I upgrade to MSXML6 ? Sure I should,

You see, many question marks, few if any answers (from MS).

Just noticed that the source for the msxsl.exe utility is now available > http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=2FB55371-C94E-4373-B0E9-DB4816552E41&displaylang=en


Not sure if this will be of any help, but never noticed the source was available before now. Something new? Well, regardless, this should be easy enough to hack into specifying which version of MSXML to use during the transformation.

I think ;-)
