Thanks for your code.
But I do not want to check if the file exists what I really want to test is whether the file path like
on a server if the path like /usr/sap/data/FI/
exists or on the workstation a file path like c:\data\fi
exists. I need to check the file path before I start writing to that file to ensure indeed such a path exists.
Thanks
