TreeView bound to XMLDataProvider - shows data in editor, but empty when run

Question

I have bound a TreeView to an XMLDataProvider. The TreeView displays the data as expected in the Visual Studio editor. But when I press F5, the application runs but the treeview is blank. Does anyone know why I can't see it when I run the application?

Here's the entire code:

<Window x:Class="TreeViewDataBinding.Window1"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    Title="Window1" Height="300" Width="300">
    <Window.Resources>
    <XmlDataProvider x:Key="FolderList">
        <x:XData>
            <TreeFolders>
                <Folder Name="Audit Reports" />
                <Folder Name="Joes Test" >
                    <Folder Name="Analysis01" />
                    <Folder Name="Test090803" />
                </Folder>
                <Folder Name="Carl" />
                <Folder Name="Steve" />
            </TreeFolders>

        </x:XData>
    </XmlDataProvider>
    <HierarchicalDataTemplate
                    x:Key="FolderTreeItemTemplate"
                    DataType="Folder">
        <HierarchicalDataTemplate.ItemsSource>
            <Binding XPath="child::*" />
        </HierarchicalDataTemplate.ItemsSource>
        <TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=@Name}" />
    </HierarchicalDataTemplate>
        </Window.Resources>
    <Grid>
        <TreeView
            ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource FolderList}, XPath=//TreeFolders/*}"
            ItemTemplate="{StaticResource FolderTreeItemTemplate}" />
    </Grid>
</Window>

i didnt run the code, but my guess is that you need to specify a namespace

    <XmlDataProvider x:Key="FolderList">
    <x:XData>
        <TreeFolders xmlns="">
            <Folder Name="Audit Reports" />
            <Folder Name="Joes Test" >
                <Folder Name="Analysis01" />
                <Folder Name="Test090803" />
            </Folder>
            <Folder Name="Carl" />
            <Folder Name="Steve" />
        </TreeFolders>

    </x:XData>
</XmlDataProvider>
