XSL 1 can not input plain text so you need to convert to xml using some
other tool such as perl, note also that

<someURIs>
  <file>C:\kix\Enterprise031114\Enterprise\file.xml</file>

is misleading as C:\kix\Enterprise031114\Enterprise\file.xml is not a
URI, or more exactly it is a URI in an unknown and unregistered URI
scheme, C. the URI for that file on your local system is

file;///C:/kix/Enterprise031114/Enterprise/file.xml

some user-oriented tools like browsers may silently accept windows file
paths and convert to uris, but most XML tools will not do that.
