Get particular outlook public folder -

My project references Interop.Outlook.dll using outlook objects. It is a VB6 project converted by .NET to be a .NET project. I have all the conversion bugs resolved, but I cannot figure out how to use outlook objects to get a particular public folder by name--not even when it was in VB6.

For example, if I use the .PickFolder method to find the folder I want, outlook returns a .FolderPath i.e. \\Public Folders\All Public Folders\There\Here. It also returns an .EntryID property = some 100+ digit number.

I found that I can use jNameSpace.GetFolderFromId("100+digitnumber") to get the folder, but how can I use as string like "\\Public Folders...\Here" to get the folder?

Perhaps there is some kind of search or an enumeration technique? It seems odd to me that you could not find a folder by name.

I've searched the forums and have come up empty, hope there is an answer to this. Thanks for whatever.
