Simple Transform is blowing up. Why?
       Object reference not set to an instance of an object in XSLT
       at the line
      => XSL1.Transform(strFileXML1,"/experiments/data/learn.v2.xml") <


	Dim strFileXML1 as string
	Dim strFileXSLT1 as string
	
	strFileXML1 = server.mappath("/experiments/data/learn.xml")
	strFileXSLT1 = server.mappath("/experiments/data/learnatt2elements.xslt")
	
	
	' XSLT stuff
	Dim XSL1 as XSLtransform = new XSLtransform
	XSL1.load(strFileXSLT1)

	' ERROR: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
  	'        at System.Xml.Xsl.XslTransform.Transform(String inputfile, 
String outputfile):

	XSL1.Transform(strFileXML1,"/experiments/data/learn.v2.xml")

FIXED
XSL1.Transform(strFileXML1,"experiments/data/learn.v2.xml")
changed to:
XSL1.Transform(strFileXML1,request.PhysicalApplicationPath & 
"experiments/data/learn.v2.xml")

was the answer. I wanted to server.mappath it instictively but knew i could 
not because the file did not exist yet.

The
request.PhysicalApplicationPath
fixed it. Thanks anyway.
