This is a grouping problem.  See the XSL FAQ for more info.

If I have a list of entries called Column such as

<Column Name="SEDOL"/>
<Column Name="EFFECTIVE_DATE"/>
<Column Name="COUPON_RATE"/>
<Column Name="SEDOL"/>

And I want to generate a list of unique,sorted entries of Column such as

<Column Name="COUPON_RATE"/>
<Column Name="EFFECTIVE_DATE"/>
<Column Name="SEDOL"/>

The unique Column Name attribute values are going to be used to populate a
list box on a Web page - is there a recommended method to achieve this. I
am currently writing the value out to a Unix file and doing a unique sort
to generate the file. But I would like to do the search using XSL for
obvious reasons.

Regards

Simon
