   I've been having a problem using the Reset function to determine
 if a file exists, and was wondering if anybody has seen anything similar.

  The code is basically:

   var
      F : file of MyOwn_type;

   [...]

   assign( F, Fname );

   {$I-}
   reset( F );
   {$I+}

 
   The program produces a runtime 002 error (file not found) and dumps
 me out to DOS.  This unit is part of a much larger program, and other
 units in the program behave properly when performing the same operation.

  Any thoughts?
