FSO if file exists issue

[DebbieDavis]

Hi there, I am trying to delete a file like this:

Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set fileObject = fso.GetFile("\\server\file.txt")
fileObject.Delete

It works great EXCEPT when the file isn't there... How do I see if it exists first? I've tried:

Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set fileObject = fso.GetFile("\\server\file.txt")
if fso.fileExists(fileobject) then
fileobject.delete
end if

but it blows past it then I get an error because the file can't be found. Any ideas? Thanks very much.

fso.fileExists("\\server\file.txt")
