I see. <xsl:template match="Level_1">
<xsl:variable name="my_var"> <xsl:for-each select="Level_2"> <xsl:value-of select="./@Name"/> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="my_var"> <xsl:for-each select="Level_2"> <xsl:value-of select="./@Name"/> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:variable> </xsl:template>

You can't.

Some processors have extension functions that allow this (saxon:assign being one of the guilty parties) but the design of XSLT is totally influenced by the fact that it is a side effect free language.
It's not that imperative programming is necessarily evil, but if you want to program in that style it makes more sense to use a language that has assignment statements (omnimark, perl, ....) rather than trying to twist a language that does not.
If you said what you were trying to do at a higher level, perhaps someone may suggest how it would be done more naturally in XSLT.
