Hi Vinod,

U can use the following :

if(-e "myFile.exe"){
        Do Somehting
}
else {
        print the error messgae
}

Simillarly, can also check for directories with the -d option.

cheers,
savinder.

Subject: check the external file presence


Hi All,

Is there any way I can include and .exe file
in my perl script.
Like, I need to run a perl script and it should look for an external exe
file presence in the current folder.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
Vinod
