You have to be sure that the current document is the one you want to search. This can be done using the following code: <xsl:for-each select="document('whateverURI')"> <!-- Use the key() function, e.g.: --> <xsl:copy-of select="key('CurrentGroupByIdentifier', 'xxx')"/> </xsl:for-each> The purpose of the xsl:for-each above is only to make the necessary document the current document. As it specifies a node-list of only one node (the root node of the document), the body of this xsl:for-each instruction will be applied only once, which is exactly what we want. ===== Cheers, Dimitre Novatchev. http://fxsl.sourceforge.net/ -- the home of FXSL XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
