I suspect you should investigate the document() function, then you can do something like <xsl:value-of select="document('other.xml')"/>

You need to use

Code:

<xsl:copy-of select="document('customerorder.xml')/*"/>

So start with the identity transformation template

Code:

<xsl:template match="@* | node()">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

then add a template for that Payload element that copies the other document in e.g.

Code:

<xsl:template match="ns1:Payload"
  xmlns:ns1="http://eai.yash.com/eBiz/Envelope">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
    <xsl:copy-of select="document('customerorder.xml')/*"/>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

Please take the time to explain your problem more clearly. Also take the time to write proper sentences rather than text shorthand - it's a basic courtesy to your readers. If you tried something and it didn't work, please explain what you tried and what happened\, so we can help you understand what you did wrong.
