If you're using DVWP (dataviewwebpart) the use is very similar. What might come in handy in SharePoint designer is the "Data View Details" taskpane where you can find all the nodes info.

If not, you can just make a sub-list. For example if you're using a nested bulleted list <ul>, you can just add inside of <li> another list with the contact number. Otherwise you can group them by creating a third xsl:template and call it with param of $Rows, $Company and $Employee. Then in that template you can create <xsl:for-each select="$Rows[@Company = $Company and @Employee = $Employee]"> <xsl:value-of select="@ContactNumber"/> </xsl:for-each> Hope I didn't complicate too much.

Is it possible to add a third level to group by? Using your example could you add phone numbers to employees that are grouped by employees. The full hierarchy would be Company -> Employee -> Contact Number. This third level and beyond seems to be the breaking point of XSLT data views. Thanks Great stuff.
