How do I animate Canvas.Left in code?

I'm trying to animate the position of a button that is a child of a
Canvas control. Run I run my app, though, the control doesn't move. Here
is the code I'm trying:


DoubleAnimation buttonAnimation = new DoubleAnimation();

buttonAnimation.From = currentYValue;
buttonAnimation.To = newYValue;
buttonAnimation.Duration = new Duration(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));

myButton.BeginAnimation(Canvas.TopProperty, buttonAnimation);


Any ideas? Is there something wrong with my code? Should I be writing it
a different way?

Thanks,
--Jeremy

This code should work, what do you use as currentYValue, and
newYValue? From where is this code called?
