A great combination I got from the documentation is...
<cfif FileExists(ExpandPath(somefile.xyz))>
Yeah got the file.
<cfelse>
Boo, file does not exist.
</cfif>
The expandpath function returns the full, device correct path of any
relative or absolute file reference, including "*.*", "/", "\",
"myfile.htm", ect. Makes for much more portable code, then hard coding
paths into the FileExists function.

Take a look at the FileExists() function ;-)
<cfif FielExists(absolute path on server to file)>
do something
<cfelse>
do something else
</cfif>
