RE: [xsl] Retrieve External String XML Data as Object

Finally!  It works, but I still am not 100% sure why.

So, I changed my script to the following:

 <msxsl:script language="VB" implements-prefix="user">
    <![CDATA[
 	Public Shared Function TransformToNodeset(ByVal arg As String) As
XmlDocument
        Dim doc As New System.Xml.XmlDocument
        doc.LoadXml(arg)
        Return doc
    	End Function
   ]]>
  </msxsl:script>

...having found a simpler way to do the parsing of the XML fragment from
RecipInstituteNum.  Then, I changed the way I was dealing with the variable:

	<xsl:variable name="institute">
		<xsl:copy-of select="user:TransformToNodeset(RecipInstituteNum)"/>
	</xsl:variable>

...and finally, per David's suggestion, I substituted xsl:copy-of in for
xsl:value-of, even though it gives me a string in the end anyway:

	<xsl:copy-of
select="msxsl:node-set($institute)/NewDataSet/InstituteData/Institut_Standard
_Name"/>

Maybe there's some overkill but it works!

Thanks,

Tony
