>The first line above has the description "Personal Spend". I dont want to output this line in the transform, if (and only if) the transactionType="CorporateCardReconciliation" AND the CorporateCardSettlementType="personal". position() counts the nodes that are selected by for-each or by apply-templates. So if you don't want these nodes counted, don't select them: <xsl:for-each select="Line[not(ItemDescription='PersonalSpend' and transactionType='CorporateCardReconciliation' and CorporateCardSettlementType='personal']> .... > > Incidentally, please don't do this: > > > >> <xsl:variable name="description"> > >> <xsl:value-of select="../../expensys:ItemDescription"/> > >> </xsl:variable> > > > > when you mean this: > > > >> <xsl:variable name="description" > > select="../../expensys:ItemDescription"/> > > Point taken - thanks. I do n ot understand the difference > between these constructs. Could you advise? The first one builds a result tree fragment consisting of a document node and a text node, whose value is a copy of the text of an existing node. The second one is (a pointer to) an existing node. Creating new nodes and copying text is expensive, and in this case is quite unnecessary. Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
