Well, I am still ignorant, but give one or both of these a try

Replace the file path shown in the function calls with the
correct file path.

Sub CallFirstFunction()
Call FindFile("C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\File Name.xls")
End Sub

Function FindFile(ByRef strPath As String)
Dim strFile As String
strFile = Dir(strPath)
If Len(strFile) Then
MsgBox "File Exists"
Else
MsgBox "File does not exist"
End If
End Function

Sub CallSecondFunction()
MsgBox ReportFileStatus("C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\File Name.xls")
End Sub

Function ReportFileStatus(filespec)
Dim fso As Object
Dim msg As String
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If (fso.FileExists(filespec)) Then
msg = filespec & " exists. "
Else
msg = filespec & " doesn't exist. "
End If
ReportFileStatus = msg
Set fso = Nothing
End Function
