Code:
Public Declare Function PathFileExists Lib "shlwapi.dll" _
Alias "PathFileExistsA" (ByVal pszPath As String) As Long

Public Function FileExists(strFileName As String) As Boolean
If PathFileExists(strFileName) = 1 Then
 FileExists = True
Else
 FileExists = False
End If
End Function


Usage :

Code:
If FileExists("c:\test.txt") = False Then
Msgbox "File Does not Exist"
End If
