You can use File.Exists(path). This will return a Boolean value
0

Hi,

Use FileInfo.Exists Property:

DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(ProcessingDirectory); FileInfo[] TXTFiles = di.GetFiles("*.xml"); if (TXTFiles.Length == 0) {     log.Info("no files present") } foreach (var fi in TXTFiles)     log.Info(fi.Exists);

or File.Exists Method:

string curFile = @"c:\temp\test.txt"; Console.WriteLine(File.Exists(curFile) ? "File exists." : "File does not exist.");
