David's example work fine with that, you just change the order:
<xsl:value-of
select="concat('/JSPRoot',DataLocation,'[@ID=&quot;5&quot;]','/',DatabaseVar
iableName)"/>

Thanks for the quick reply, I'm thinking more of something like this:

<xsl:value-of
select="concat('/JSPRoot',DataLocation,'[@ID='5']','/',DatabaseVariableName)
"/>

The single quotes around the 5 isn't liked because of the single quote
around the '[@ID....]'

Any ideas?
