Hi.
I am populating an ASP.net page with a list of reports that exist in a particular folder on the SSRS server.
I am using the code ReportServer.ListChildren("\MyFolder") to get a list of the reports.
This works fine if the folder MyFolder actually exists but the code throws an error if MyFolder does not exist on the ReportServer.
In this scenario I want to handle this separately instead of having the error message thrown.
Is there a way in which I can check if the folder exists first of all prior to making the ListChildren call so that I can mange the absence of the folder without attempting to list the items in the absent folder?
Thanks ain advance

Some things to try (I don't have my environment up): GetItemType("/MyFolder"). It should return the string "Folder". I am unsure what it returns if it does not exist.
