Hi David,

That is because your XPath expressions match elements from no namespace
while all the elements from your XML file are from
http://tempuri.org/test.xsd namespace:

 > <CorporateActionAnnouncement xmlns="http://tempuri.org/test.xsd">

You should add in your stylesheet something like

xmlns:t="http://tempuri.org/test.xsd"

and then use the t prefix to refer to any element in your stylesheet,
for instance instead of CorporateActionAnnouncement you should have
t:CorporateActionAnnouncement.

Best Regards,
George
