A similar issue was found in January and I thought it was fixed :-(

Running in FB returns a parID and vRefNum but does not return a name.

Running in FBtoC returns the folder name, a correct vRefNum but the  
parID is different from what is returned running under FB.

Sometime in the next few days I'll look into this further. Right now  
there are other FB items on my plate.
