Because Address as defined above is an element, not a complex type.
If you change your Address definition from it's current form:
<xsd:element name="Address">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name = "StreetAddress1" type="xsd:string"/>
<xsd:element name = "StreetAddress2" type="xsd:string"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
into:
<xsd:complexType name="Address">
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name = "StreetAddress1" type="xsd:string"/>
<xsd:element name = "StreetAddress2" type="xsd:string"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
it will work with:
<xsd:element name="WorkAddress" type="Address"/>
Hope that helps,
