I didn't catch that the elements were unsorted. That changed everything.
In my example the sorting is an arbitrary one done at time of
data-entry, so my challenge wasn't nearly as great.

Subject: Re: [xsl] Complicated grouping and column question
I just did this exact same thing. My solution was to find middle child
of the parent elements, and identify it with a key, then put all the
preceding-siblings of that child's parent, plus the parent itself in
the left hand column, and all the following-siblings of that child's
parent in the right hand column.
I tried a few experiments along these lines, but they did not work for
me. I couldn't find the correct middle child because the elements
weren't in the correct order. At least, I couldn't think of a way to do
it on my own. Thanks for the help, though.
Will.
