Hi Roman,

yes, that's correct. I would like the input document to be copied exactly 
except that the TradeId and ExtTradeID have been updated;

so;

<Trades>
	<Trade>
	   <TradeId>FOO</TradeId>
                  <ExtTradeId>300</TradeId>
	</Trade>

               <Trade>
                 <TradeId>BAR</TradeId>
                 <ExtTradeId>301</TradeId>
	</Trade>
</Trades>

should become....


<Trades>
	<Trade>
	   <TradeId>300</TradeId>
                  <ExtTradeId>1</TradeId>
	</Trade>

               <Trade>
                 <TradeId>301</TradeId>
                 <ExtTradeId>1</TradeId>
	</Trade>
</Trades>


i.e. I replace the TradeId value with the ExtTradeId value. In paralel I 
want to use a counter to put a value in ExtTradeId, starting at 1 and 
incrementing each time.


thank you so much for these replies......I really appreciate them :)
