It now seems to me that the issue is if you have

I tried referring to a non-existing file in the temporary items
folder. If this file is "F":
msgBox f.shellPath produces what you would expect from the absolute
path.
msgBox f.parent.shellPath+"\"+f.name gives you a dos path as you
would want.
If this rings as true, or as a valid bug, and anyone else wants to
report it, I would appreciate it. Long day, I'm spent... if it
isn't bugged by tomorrow, then I'll do it myself.
G'night.

Sounds like you're a victim of getting a valid folder item to
something you did NOT ask for
Is this your problem (it happens with "new folderitem" as well)

the killer here is that you get a valid folderitem with exists = true
and pretty much have to check that the path is what you gave it (in
some fashion) to see if you got the right item
