Is there a "is file open" function?

[nightdesigns]

Trying to find out a way to check to see if a file is open.

Thanks.

Use the design function "DatabaseNames"

I'm interest in knowing if there is a way in a script to check to see if a file of another format (pdf) exists.

If it exists, it can be opened by using the Open URL script step.

I think you need a plugin like Troi File. www.Troi.com

You could do it with Applescript, too...

Yes there is... Use troi file plugin.. After you have written the PDF file to your drive use the function troi-file filesize to check the size of the pdf file written to disk.. If the file does not exists the function will return a error code otherwise it will return the size of the file.. Troi plug in has alot of other features.. It's a great plugin.. Check it out at
