Okay, I have tried using the item part of a folder collection object and a
file collection object.
I have tried it initially as late binding, then as early binding, neither
method helped.
I have tried it with using <object>.Item(#) and I have also tried
<object>(#) for both binding methods.
All 4 ways, I get the error message within the watch window, "Invalid
procedure call or argument".
I know I can use the For Each, which I have used that numerous times under
the late binding method, but I have come to a situation that I don't want
the program spending too much time searching and a pretty good majority of
the time given the nature of business practice, the code will find the
proper folder near the bottom of the folder list, so I was thinking of
having it search in reverse order via the For I = Last To First Step -1
route, but it seems as though it's not allowed. Am I missing something
here?
Where the # is, I would have that as a valid number and even used a number
like 2 for test purposes, when there's 5 items in the list as shown in the
watch window. In practice, there could really be more like about 200
folders in the parent folder.

The argument to ITEM for the folders collection is Key.
Debug.Print fldrs.Item("I386").Name
works returning I386. I don't believe it accepts an index argument - only
the key value; which for folders appears to be the folder name.

What kind of search?
