I guess I should have copied the entire XML.

<REGISTRY xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; 
xsi:schemaLocation="http://schemas.dell.com/wbem/biosattributeregistry/1 
file:///C:/work/12G/Attribute%20Registry/DCIM_AttributeRegistry.xsd" 
xmlns="http://schemas.dell.com/wbem/biosattributeregistry/1";>

Turns out if I just remove the last namespace, 
xmlns="http://schemas.dell.com/wbem/biosattributeregistry/1";

Then it works correctly.

Any idea why this would cause it to not be able to find the children?

You shouldn't do a check on the length() for xmlRoot... that represents the 
REGISTRY level... otherwise your code looks fine.

I must be missing something simple here.  I’m reading in XML that looks like 
this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<REGISTRY>
      <REGISTRY_DECLARATION/>
      <REGISTRY_ENTRIES>
            <Attribute>
                  <AttributeName>Attr_1</AttributeName>
            </Attribute>
            <Attribute>
                  <AttributeName>Attr_2</AttributeName>
            </Attribute>
            <Attribute>
                  <AttributeName>Attr_3</AttributeName>
            </Attribute>
      </REGISTRY_ENTRIES>
</REGISTRY>

I’m trying to get all <Atribute> nodes using the .. operator, but it always 
returns 0, even though xmlRoot looks fine.

protected function xmlService_resultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void
{
      if (event != null && event.result != null && event.result is XML) {
            var xmlRoot:XML = event.result as XML;
            if (xmlRoot && xmlRoot.length() > 0) {
                  var lst:XMLList = xmlRoot..Attribute;
                  trace("lst length = " + lst.length());
            }
      }
}
