This is not possible I think, since the general template calls the other
template on a particular order (based on the calculation in the general
template), so I don't think it's possible in this situation.

Thanks for the tip,

Peter

Just a thought, but depending on what the general template is doing,
it might be that you can turn around the processing, so that instead
of calling the general template with a parameter specifying the mode,
you apply templates in the specific mode and those templates call the
general template as appropriate to perform the necessary calculations.

Cheers,
