What I'm trying to do here is. While processing an XML file (MAIN.xml) with
XSL I need to pull data from another XML file (ACAD.xml) that depends on
content.

@fileref is an attribute in the MAIN.xml file
@generated and @autocad attributes are in the ACAD.xml file

if @fileref exists in the ACAD.xml I need to pull and use the @autocad
attribute

Here is the XSLT code:

	<xsl:template match="something">
		<xsl:variable name="mike"
select="document(ACAD.xml')/ACAD/Drawing/@generated=@fileref"/>
		<xsl:choose>
			<xsl:when test="$mike">
				TRUE---Found a match!!!!!
				HOW CAN I GET THE @autocad???????
			</xsl:when>
		</xsl:choose>
	</xsl:template>




<ACAD>
	<Drawing generated="ch300.JPG" autocad="BRL00203-Model.dwf"/>
	<Drawing generated="ch304.JPG" autocad="BRL00201-Model.dwf"/>
</ACAD>
