getFolderFromPath ... Why! -

This is done with Outlook Redemption. If you are familiar maybe you can help me out .
I've been working on this issue in another post, but this is another attempt at the same problem (its the getFolderfromID one). This is my workaround for that problem as a way has not yet showed itself. This way would be grabbing the folders and just traverse the path to get it but I'm having an issue. Here is what my treeView looks like
Code:
Public Folders
Mailbox - myname
Personal Folders
     SPAM Search Folder 2
  - Top of Personal Folders
          Deleted Items
          Inbox
          Outbox
          Sent Items
          Etc....
  +  Search Root
      IPM_VIEWS
      IPM_COMMON_VIEW
For one, I have no idea what SPAM Search Folder 2, Search Root (expandable thus the '+'), IPM_VIEWS, or IPM_COMMON_VIEW are! So when I wrote an algorithm to write recursively 'up' the nodes in the treeview to grab the names, the path gives me:
\\Personal Folder\top of personal folders\Inbox
This doesn't work!
It is supposed to be \\personal folders\Inbox
Why when walking through my nodes do I get all of that other worthless garbage? I mean I could start the traversal farther in. Is there something I'm doing wrong in RDO to make it do this? I am connecting to Outlook 2003 with an Exchange Server. Can anyone help?
