First of all this will not detect whether you have an old copy of the file, or the new copy. And secondly, file() does not always respect the path. If you try ?file('yourfile'), it will return true as lonmg as yourfile is in VFP's path. Even ?file('\yourfile') will return true, it will not respect the backslash.
