Michael,

Thanks for the response.  I'm using Livelink and I wouldn't be surprised if it's a bug but if there is it's going to really screw me up.  Here's the xsl line:

<td class="number"><xsl:value-of select="format-number(./Total_Cost, '#,###,###')"/></td>

The xml is basically like this:
<Florida2004A>
<Total_Cost>3603664</Total_Cost>
</Florida2004A>

It comes back to me as '3.' There is no xsl:decimal-format specification in my code.  Again, this does format correctly for any number with 6 digits or less.  Any suggested work around or other ideas? (other than a new processor?)  I guess I could use string functions to format correctly.

Many thanks,
Carter
