I am guessing that the problem I am having:
OLE Error code 0x800a0035: Unknown COM status code
is because there are folders in the FAVORITES folder and the routine
hits the wall when it comes across a folder instead of a file.
It would be nice if the code would recognize that the object is a folder and then scann/copy the content of the folder.
