  Thanks for the reply.  I did initially try to use:
<xsl:apply-templates select="@Description"
mode="escape-CSV" />
But somehow that did not work, the returned string is
exactly the same as the original string, with "
instead of "".
  Then I tested apply-templates with a node, the
string replacement worked prefectly.  So I went ahead
and tried call-template with attribute like below:
<xsl:call-template name="escape-CSV">
  <xsl:with-param name="string" select="@Description"
/>
</xsl:call-template>
And that worked prefectly.
  What could have caused the behavior I am seeing?

much thanks,
Xiaocun
