RE: CSV file from an XML source file using XSLT

Thanks for this, but this is what I am doing and I get:

Output character not available in this encoding (decimal 8217).

Transformation failed.

Yes, it does for me ... I'm assuming you tried it and it 
didn't work for 
you, so I created the two test files below for you to run in your 
environment.

The first one puts the output in the default UTF-8, while the 
second one 
puts it out in Latin 1.  Using the "ü" character is high 
enough in the 
Latin 1 character set to trigger a two-character output in UTF-8.

I can't think of why your tests in your environment would not 
have produced 
the desired results.

I hope this helps.
