How to check for FTP File Exists

Sorry this may have been asked before, but I can't find it. I need to check a remote ftp service for a particular file. When I use the "FTP File Loop" task if I put the file name in the "Remote Folder and File Mask" box it doesn't find the file (welcome.msg). But if I put *.msg in the box it finds the file.

Yes, you are correct. Such problem exists.
It seems we need to improve the action or implement some mechanism to check the file existence.

Now I recommend you to use the mask welcome*.msg in the FTP File loop.
