How about something along the lines of:

Pseudo code:

  Procedure IF_FILE_EXIST is
  begin
     open the existing file
     close the file
     return true;
  exception
     when the exception occurs that is associated with a file not present =>
       return false;
  end IF_FILE_EXIST;

I hope this helps (I hope it works too!)
