Jon,
Unless I'm missing something, the sample pattern that Marty sent you appears to satisfy your requirements --except for an oversight that there exists a registers element between block and register. So it should be "blocks/block[1]/registers/register[1]".
If for some reason you need to match on 'register' and then check 'backwards' to see if the grandparent is the first 'block' element then this is one way to do it
<xsl:variable name="block1" select="//block[1]"/>

Unfortunately, I need the template to match on the register and then test to see if the grandparent is the 1st element of its type.
Thanks

you might try
xsl:template match="blocks/block[1]/register[1]"
or if you need the xsl:choose sytntax, i'm sure someone will post a fine example of the preceding-sibling::axis.
cheers
