Sotiris >here is an example of my XML code and style sheet and the results in >produces using MSXML 3.0. Your problem lies in your use of namespaces. In your XML document, you have defined the default namespace (the one without a prefix) to be "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-data" in: <SearchSet xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-data" xmlns:dt="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:datatypes" xmlns:plss="urn:ctl.com:plss"> In your stylesheet, on the other hand, the only namespace declaration you have made is about the XSLT namespace ("http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"). That means that when you match on an element name within a template, e.g.: <xsl:template match="SearchSet"> ... </xsl:template> The XSLT processor is looking for a 'SearchSet' element that is not in a namespace (or is in the namespace "" - somebody want to tell me what the correct technical term is?). This *doesn't* match the 'SearchResults' or any other elements in your XML document because they are in the "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-data" namespace. Without that match, only the built-in templates are processed, which means that the output consists of the textual content of the elements in your XML document (the 'PL00000990' and so on). You have two good options (and a bad one that involves searching on the local part of the element name): 1. take out the default namespace declaration in the XML document, or give the xml-data namespace a prefix - this is the best option if 'SearchResults' and the other elements are *not* actually defined within the Microsoft XML-Data schema 2. declare the default namespace in the stylesheet to be "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-data" using: <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-data"> ... </xsl:stylesheet> This is the best option if 'SearchResults' and the other elements *are* actually defined within the Microsoft XML-Data schema.
