Default Check if file exists

Is there an easy way in Excel to check if a file exists? I can concatenate
strings and build the full path and name of the file I want to check. I will
have a few hundred file names in column A, and in column B I just want to
have a formula that equals "Yes" if the file exists on my LAN or "No" if it
doesn't.

I can't seem to find a way to do it with Excel formulas. I'm sure this is
trivial in VBA, but I don't know it.

Thanks.
