Brett,

The reason the xpath is failing is that it uses the soap prefix, which
isn't declared. I believe you just mean to change the xpath to

soap-env:Envelope/soap-env:Body/node()

Thank you for responding. According to RUWF ( 
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/tools/ruwf/check.html) the following is well 
formed:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
 
xmlns:soap-env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
                 exclude-result-prefixes="soap-env"
                 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
                 xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
                 version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="text" indent="yes" encoding="UTF-8"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
   <xsl:apply-templates select="soap:Envelope/soap:Body/node()"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="*"> <!--synthesize element with the input name-->
   <xsl:element name="{name(.)}" namespace="{namespace-uri(.)}">
     <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
     <xsl:apply-templates/>
   </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

     <xsl:template match="/">
	<xsl:for-each select="MapSecuritiesResult/Security">
		<xsl:if test="Outcome='Success'">
		<xsl:copy-of select="Name"/>, <!--
		--><xsl:copy-of select="Symbol"/>, <!--
		--><xsl:copy-of select="CIK"/>, <!--
		--><xsl:copy-of select="Cusip"/>, <!--
		--><xsl:copy-of select="Market"/>
		<xsl:text>&#13;</xsl:text>
		</xsl:if>
	</xsl:for-each>
	</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

These are the errors I'm getting:

IE 6:
Reference to undeclared namespace prefix: 'soap'.

Firebird 0.7:
Error loading stylesheet: Parsing an XPath expression failed.

Xerxes (via Treebeard -- it offers Saxon parsing as an option, but I 
can't seem to get it to work):
Window::transform: 
javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException:

Once again, thank you for helping me.
