Why not use the free FileXtra3 that ships with Director?
oFileObj = new ( xtra "FileXtra3" )
bFile = fx_FileExists( someFileOrOther )
if bFile then
-- hooray!
else
-- it's missing
end if
FileIO is an option, to be sure, but FileXtra *is* there, and it *has
been* designed to do this kind of stuff. ;)
