I am trying to find a way to prompt a user to enter a filename.  The computer
will then search for an existing filename and insert the filename and path
into a variable.  Does anyone know or have an idea how to search for the files
and insert their filename and path into a varialbe, if they exist or not ?


                                              Thanks in advance
                                                 - Jack -
