How to get folder path from IMapiFolder

[scb]

Hi All,

I'm trying to get the full Outlook folder path when I have a reference
to an IMapiFolder object. I don't see any obvious properties that
will give it to me easily.

My current solution is to build the folder path by getting a reference
to the parent folder through PR_PARENT_ENTRYID, and travel up the
hierarchy, using PR_DISPLAY_NAME for each folder. I know I've hit the
root IMAPIFolder when the current Entry ID is equal to the parent
Entry ID.

Any other solutions out there?

Thanks in advance.

That's the usual way to do it.
