There are two Xtras out there that can do this for you.

The FileXtra3 will do this, and it is completely free.  The code would be:

on DoesFileExist sFullPathToFile
   xFileXtra = XTRA("FileXTRA3").new()
   fExists = xFileXtra.fx_FileExists(sFullPathToFile)
   xFileXtra = VOID
   return fExists
end

The FileXtra3 can be found at:  http://www.kblab.net/xtras



Or BuddyAPI which is free for the first two function calls.   The 
code would be:

on DoesFileExist sFullPathToFile
   fExists = baFileExists(sFullPathToFile)
   return fExists
end

BuddyAPI: is at:  http://www.buddyapi.com
