Something like this maybe:
function getFolder(theName){
for (var i = 1; i <= app.project.numItems; i++){
if ((app.project.item(i) instanceof FolderItem) && (app.project.item(i).name == theName)){
return app.project.item(i);
}
}
return app.project.items.addFolder(theName);
}var myFolder = getFolder("Solids");
alert (myFolder.name);
