Hi Michael (et al), You all might find this funny (== "ironic" or "amusing" ), but after showing some of my colleagues what I had done, they are now telling me (a) the names for each of the template matches ARE the same (exactly as you all ASSUMED earlier) plus they realized that if the XSLT designed to only work with specific names, then if the names in the source XML changed, then we would also have to change our code every time, so I think I am going to try to to use what you (Michael) originally suggested :)!!
