You can use this API:

Declare Function PathFileExists Lib "shlwapi.dll"
Alias "PathFileExistsA" (ByVal pszPath As String) As Long

pszPah is the fully qualified name of the file whose
exisence you want to check. The result is 0 when the file
does not exist.

Mornin' all,

I have a macro in excel that runs automatically.

I want it to check to see if the trigger file is there
before running.

The process that happens before this saves a text file,
if
that text file isn't there, thir proceedure should
cancel.

Any ideas?

Thanks for your help!
