Redemption Foldes.Add doesn't work

[escamoteur]

I tried this here. The Store is created, fine, but the folder is not created although the returned RDOFolder is not null

I use Outlook 2007

RDOSession Session = new RDOSessionClass();// CreateObject("Redemption.RDOSession");
//Use the MAPI session from Outlook Object Model
Session.MAPIOBJECT = theApp.Instance.Application.Session.MAPIOBJECT;
RDOStore Store = (RDOStore) Session.Stores.AddPSTStore(path, 2, "ArtistsOrganizer");
RDOFolder folder = Store.RootFolder.Folders.Add("Opportunities", "IPM.Task.ArtistsOrganizer.BO");

REplace the line
RDOFolder folder = Store.RootFolder.Folders.Add("Opportunities",
"IPM.Task.ArtistsOrganizer.BO");
with
RDOFolder folder = Store.IPMRootFolder.Folders.Add("Opportunities",
"IPM.Task.ArtistsOrganizer.BO");

Note that root folder of any store is not visible - Outlook creates
invisible and search folders there.
What you need is the root IPM folder (which is a subfolder of the root
folder).
You can look at the folders in OutlookSpy - click IMsgStore button in the
OutlookSpy toolbar, then click "Open Root Container" and go to the
GetHierarchyTable tab.

Does the GetRootFolder Method of OOM return in reality the IPMRootFolder?

Because this here was my former code

theApp.Instance.Application.Session.AddStoreEx(,Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlStoreType.olStoreUnicode);
Outlook.MAPIFolder rootFolder = (Outlook.Folder) AO_Store.GetRootFolder();
rootFolder.Name = ;
//Create Folders
BO_Folder = (Outlook.Folder)rootFolder.Folders.Add("Oportunities", Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderTasks);

And that worked

Yes, Store.GetRotFolder returns the IPM root folder, not the topmost folder
in the store.
