Preventing file overwriting

I am using the following to check for the presence of a file and if presnet,
prevent it from copying over it. It does not seem to work.

Can someone please advise the proper way to accomplish this? Some example
code would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

If Dir("ArchivePathFilenameStr") = "" Then
FileCopy Source:=PathFilenameStr, Destination:=ArchivePathFilenameStr
Else
End If
