Hi Darryl, You can. For the "productname" element, you would need a prefix rule something like this: Prefix: <$attribute[label:book]> ...which indicates to print the text from the "label" attribute of the closest ancestor (or self) "book" element. Provided that you have no other "book" elements except for the highest-level element, it should work. And, if you have a default value specified for the "label" attribute in your EDD, it will come through if nothing else is specified. Since you have the possibility of two different HLEs (highest-level elements), I imagine the following prefix would be adequate for all situations, provided that only one "book" or "set" element would ever appear in any given document: Prefix: <$attribute[label:book]><$attribute[label:set]> For more information on this syntax, check out the Structure Developer's Guide on page 162 (FM 7.0 doc) Russ
