if exist... ? - PhilOfPerth - 08-28-2022

I remember from way back when, there was something like If Exist(filename) to load a file if it existed, so you could provide an option if it didn't, but I can't find it or remember its syntax. Any clues?

_FileExists(theFile$) It's a Function ;-)) It will return -1 or True if file exists and 0 = False if it's not found.

Thanks Steve. I knew it would be in there somewhere... my searching algorithm isn't quite up to scratch!  Rolleyes

Always use this statement...
IF _WIKIEXISTS THEN GOTO WIKI
