How are you parsing the XML?

With XSL: Just a simple for-each attribute and then I try to us a value-of.

The XPath name() function returns the name of the current element.

Thats my code and all I get back is 'attribute'

Your context node is attribute; thus, you're printing its name. You want to print out the children elements name. It you just want to print out the first child's name: Given this XML document: TestColumID Assignment Delta System.Double OutputColumn Single Adherence Delta ReportDatabaseColumnAttribute here is an example of what you are trying to do except it prints out all children names:
