Default Does the hyperlink exist?

I have a rake of files where the file name is in a spreadsheet column but the
file extension is not. There are only two possibilities .pdf or .tif.

How do I get the bit marked ** to work??

I can get the filename from the worksheet by a loop

Filename = Worksheets(SheetName).Cells(row_index, column_index).Value

What I want to do then is

vFile = filename & ".PDF"
vPath = "http:\\amsds0004\chelmsford\ECR_metrics\"

'If the file exists with a PDF extension then ...
** If exists vPath + vFile then
With Worksheets(SheetName)
.Hyperlinks.Add .Cells(row_index, column_index), vFile
End With
'Otherwise it must be a TIF extension so ...
Else
vFile = filename & ".TIF"
With Worksheets(SheetName)
.Hyperlinks.Add .Cells(row_index, column_index), vFile
End With
End if


Thanks Paul
