Using 9.5, 64-bit, and have the Power Plugin pack available to me.  Back in 
7.6, ChkFile worked with wildcards even though the documentation said the 
results would be inconsistent.  For example, if you wanted to see if there are 
any excel files in a directory, you could:
        set var vcount = (chkfile('c:\temp\*.xls'))
It would return 1 if there were files, 0 if there wasn't.

So now I'm in 9.5 and I want to check if there are files in a directory.  The 
ChkFile doesn't work for this, and I looked thru the plugin document and don't 
see a filecount.  Is there a nice elegant way to do this now, or do I have to 
do directories to a file to a temp table, etc...
