TDSE.GetObject doesn't resolve a WebDAV URL with dots in it

Question

Anyone experienced exception using below function? ``` tdse.GetObject(tmpFolderWebDavURL, EnumOpenMode.OpenModeView, null, XMLReadFilter.XMLReadAll) as Folder; ``` Seems if the last segment of webdav contains a dot then the method throws and exception. for example `tmpFolderWebDavURL = "/webdav/test_publication/2.2 folder name"` - fails exception thrown `tmpFolderWebDavURL = "/webdav/test_publication/22 folder name"` - works `tmpFolderWebDavURL = "/webdav/test_publication/2.2 folder name/sub_folder"` - works Exception ``` /webdav/TPMG Medical Library Content/Building Blocks/Content Live/2.2 People Lists

Accepted Answer

Just like with spaces, dots must be escaped in webdav URLs.

So a space becomes "%20", a dot becomes "%2E". Try doing `tmpFolderWebDavURL.Replace(".", "%2E")`.
