Default Accessibility of a server

Hi All,

I have to check whether a file exists on a remote server or not. DIR works
when the server is accessible, but doesn't reply if connection is broken and
keeps searching the file ad infinitum, I can't even interrupt running the
macro (neither with Esc nor with Task manager).

Is there any way to detect the accessibility of the server before using DIR?

Thanks,
Stefi
