Prady,

In your parameter declaration:

<xsl:param name="doc2" select="document(Orders_Part2.xsl)"/>

If your second document is named 'Orders_Part2.xsl', this should be
document('Orders_Part2.xsl') with quote marks to represent that the
argument is a string (not a path expression).

If it is actually named 'Orders_Part2.xml' then it should be
document('Orders_Part2.xml').

Then the xsl:value-of should refer to $doc2 (the parameter), not
$Orders_Part2 (which is not defined anywhere in this code).

As given, this would produce an error message -- which might give a clue as
to what is wrong.

If you back up and take the time to be careful about this stuff, you will
probably save time in the end.

Good luck,
Wendell
