I really appreciated this posting and associated blog.  It was very helpful as I also wanted a way to use UDT in a checkbook register type manner.

I use the following columns for my UDT: Date Number, Description, Transaction Type, Debit, Credit, and Balance Due.

I ran into a couple problems.  The first one I was able to do a work around.  It had to due with the Column name [Transaction Type].  I was not able to figure out how to use the value-of with a column with a name that contains a space.  My work around was to just rename the column [Transaction-Type] so that it was a single word name.  I am just curious if there was another solution to this problem.

The second problem I am having is that when the [Date] column is displayed the date shows as “1997-01-01T00:00:00-08:00”  I can not figure out a way to strip the extra time stamp information from the displayed record.  Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again for the xsl example...

Robert
