Use xmlhttp and a "HEAD" request:

'***********************
Function HttpExists(sURL As String) As Boolean
Dim oXHTTP As Object
Set oXHTTP = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
oXHTTP.Open "HEAD", sURL, False
oXHTTP.send
HttpExists = (oXHTTP.Status = 200)
End Function

...
I need to check if a file with path "http://pmnet/113-FR-001.xls" exists
without opening it. I've tried using Dir(myPath) but I get an error 52
'Bad
file name or number'. I've also tried using the FileExists method in VB
but
I'm not sure how to use it.

Thanks
