Dear Wendell,

Thanks for your reply, but sorry, cause I am still a newbie.
How do you concatenate all the Payment_Pattern that comes back ?
Can you show me an example please ? thx

Cezar

Hi Cezar,

Given a Payment_Pattern as the current node,

<xsl:value-of select="string-length(.) - string-length(translate(.,'2','')"/>

would tell you how many occurrences of '2' are in the string. (Subtract the length of the string with the 2s removed from the length of the full string.)

If by "in all the records" you mean all the Payment_Pattern elements together, they could be concatenated and the same operation performed on the resulting mega-string.

Cheers,
Wendell

Dear all,

I got a problem.
<Trades>
 <record>
 <Payment_Pattern>111111111111111</Payment_Pattern>
 </record>
 <record>
 <Payment_Pattern>112224443311111</Payment_Pattern>
 </record>
 <record>
 <Payment_Pattern>1112211111133311</Payment_Pattern>
 </record>
</trades>

The question is how do you get the number of 2's (or 1's or 3's) in all the records ?
Any help will be appreciated, thx


Cezar
