I am trying to enumerate messages in a journal for a private queue but I
keep getting an exception that states there is an invalid parameter passed
to a function. Here is the code.

path contains a string like
" FormatName:DIRECT=OS:bizsql1\private$\to
_biztalk\journal$"

private int GetNumMsgsInQueue( string path )
{
int count = 0;
try
{

msgQueue = new MessageQueue( path );

// Get a cursor into the messages in the queue.
msgEnumerator = msgQueue.GetMessageEnumerator();

// Move to the next message and count it Doing this statement causes the
exception!!!!!!
while(  msgEnumerator.MoveNext() )
{
count++;
}
}
catch( Exception ex )
{
MessageBox.Show( ex.Message, this.Text, MessageBoxButtons.OK,
MessageBoxIcon.Warning );
}
return count;
}


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Solution is that the format name was incorrect. Should be:
 FormatName:DIRECT=OS:bizsql1\private$\to
_biztalk;journal
