FSO FileExists and wildcards

[croydon]

Is it possible to use wildcards with FSO.FileExists? The following does not appear to work:

If FSO.FileExists("c:\tempdir\*.*") = True Then
FSO.DeleteFile("c:\tempdir\*.*", True)
End If

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

croydon,

It is a No.

If you really want to check something is there, do this instead?
[tt]
if fso.getfolder("c:\tempdir").files.count<>0 then
'do something as shown
end if
[/tt]
Sure there are lot of other ways to look at the same thing.

Further note:

Just in case you did not notice, take out the parentheses.
[tt]
FSO.DeleteFile "c:\tempdir\*.*", True
[/tt]
