I would like to know if it is possible to transform an xml document into 2 text file using only one xslt.

In XSLT 2.0 you can have as many output documents as you like. In version 1.0 you'll need to use scripting or an extension. What processor are you using?

I am using MSXML v3.0 and the xslt ver 1.0

In XSLT 2.0 there is an instruction xsl:result-document that allows you to produce multiple output files. Some XSLT 1.0 processors have similar capabilities as vendor extensions. If yours doesn't, you can always invoke the processor twice, with different parameters, once to produce each output file.

Then do as Michael suggests, with two transforms, or look at the msxsl:script element in the SDK combined with the FileSystemObject: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...asp?frame=true
I have seen some examples on Google of this so try searching for some of those terms.

Mr Michael Kay,

"you can always invoke the processor twice, with different parameters, once to produce each output file."

can u give few lines of code on the above or refer me on the material for it.

thanks
Raju

Which part don't you understand?

- How to invoke the processor?

- How to supply parameters?

- How to produce an output file?

They're all pretty basic, they're all well covered in documentation, and they all depend on which XSLT processor you are using.
