Well, if you know the file will be in the root of the volume, you could loop
through the available volumes testing Volume(x).Name for the volume name
then construct the folderitem via Volume(x).Child("filename").
If you have no idea where the file will actually be on the volume, it seems
like you would have to perform a full volume search for the file, which as
you mentioned could cause issues if there happens to be another file with
the same name. I imagine it could also be a fairly time-consuming process on
large volumes.
