GOAL:
How to Determine if a Directory Exists
FIX:
In order to determine if a particular directory exists, use the FILE-INFO handle.
For example, the code:
/* Set the directory name in question */
FILE-INFO:FILE-NAME = "dirname".
/* display the attributes of "dirname" */
MESSAGE FILE-INFO:FILE-TYPE VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX.
will display 'D' if the directory exists and a '?' if it does not exist.
