Thanks for both of your quick responses. You've confirmed I am on the
right path. There is a lot to think about.

use a stylesheet to create a stylesheet that does the transformation.
I think this would be possible, if complicated. The user is not limited
on the number of tables they can insert, so there could be several
templates generated. It seems I would still end up with a variation of
3, as I would want to consolidate the number of templates to a minimum,
since the user could specify multiple tables with the same number of
sort statements. This would also mean I would have to output the master
stylesheet on the fly, too, to get the list of includes correct.
(Do your users check off the columns they want to sort by in some user
interface?
Yes.

I looked up an old template of myself where I faced a similar problem.
The easy part is the number of sort statements. Just limit the amount
to, say, 10, and create 10 sort statements.
This would certainly be the most expedient solution in the short term.
Again,
Thanks!
