Simple XPath Query

From: "RS" <rspencer_@_--------.--->
To: NULL
Date: 8/11/2006 11:42:00 AM

Hi,

I have the following xml and need to perform an XPath query to get the 
element where the ObjectName attribute is "Photos\Infrastructure\Water". 
The elements are not sorted.

<Data>
<DataItem ObjectName="Photos" ObjectType="Folder"></DataItem>
<DataItem ObjectName="Photos\Infrastructure" ObjectType="Folder"></DataItem>
<DataItem ObjectName="Photos\Infrastructure\WaterShed" 
ObjectType="Folder"></DataItem>
<DataItem ObjectName="Photos\Infrastructure\Water" 
ObjectType="Folder"></DataItem>
<DataItem ObjectName="Photos\Infrastructure\Water\East" 
ObjectType="Folder"></DataItem>
</Data>

I tried using the starts-with function such as:

starts-with("@ObjectName","\Photos\Infrastructure\Water\")

but it returns the element where ObjectName is 
"Photos\Infrastructure\WaterShed"  instead.

Can anyone provide insight on how to return the Photos\Infrastructure\Water 
element?

Thanks,
RS
