just use the path of folder from document ibrary i.e.
If document ibrary = doclib then use as:

queryOption.InnerXml =
doclib/folder/sub_folder/

It’s not working it returns all items and folders from the whole list, its like its been set to be recursive, any idea ?

Thanks a bunch. This helped me a lot too.
Also just to note, I was running this using the folder path from another query and when getListItems returns the results “ows_FileDirRef” has the folder id added to the front like this “17;#listName\folderName\subFolder”, so if you want to use it you have to remove it with something like “result.Substring(result.IndexOf(‘#’)+1)”

thanks man, I was also having a hard time with this – i’m hating sharepoint at the moment but at least your article saved me a struggle.
