Default Check whether URL exists


Is there a way to check whether a URL exists without downloading the
file?

I'm downlong a list of files from URLs using URLDownloadToFile. It
works fine, but I also need a way to quickly check whether all files
in a list of URLs are already downloaded to a given folder, without
taking the time to download each one.

I'm targeting Excel 2002, and I can't assume the user has anything
installed that isn't normally installed with Windows.

Any ideas?


Thanks,

Greg
