Check File Existence with FileStystemObject

In many cases we need to check if a particular file exists on the server or not. This simple function returns true or false based on the file existence. Just pass a valid file name to the function.

<% Option Explicit Dim FileName FileName = "MyFile.asp" FileName = Server.MapPath("/Files/" & FileName) If IsFileExists(FileName) = True  Then  Response.Write "File exists" Else  Response.Write "File does not exists" End If ' ********************************** ' Function to check file Existance ' ********************************** Function IsFileExists(byVal FileName)    If FileName = ""  Then   IsFileExists = False   Exit Function  End If    Dim objFSO       Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")       If (objFSO.FileExists( FileName ) = True  Then   IsFileExists = True  Else   IsFileExists = False  End If     Set objFSO = Nothing    End Function %>
