Hi Dave,

1. I'm using VC7.1.3088 (.Net framework SP1) on Windows XP Professional.

2. Here I did not put it correctly. (pls. forgive me as I'm quite new to XML, 
Xalan and XPath). 

Pls. see the problem I'm into below:

I have some XML like:
<A>
        <B>
                <C1 id="id1">1</C1>
                <C2 id="id2">2</C2>
        </B>
        <D id="id('id1')">3</D>
</A>

When I give XPath expression like : /A/D/@id , I need to get value 1. The value 
1 will be coming from the element C1 whose id is "id1". 
Please let me know how I can do the same, and how I can get the desired value 
using the sample applications with Xalan.

Currently I'm getting the string output id('id1'). In fact I need to get value 
1 (this corresponds to the value of the element whose id is id1).

Please note that in my previous mail I mentioned that it worked for other 
tools, but that is NOT correct. I gave a wrong expression. Sorry about that.

Best Regards.
