VBA - Checking Two Different Path Locations

Question

I have an existing VBA Project that I simply need to modify even if does scream to be re-written one day.

The sheet has a hidden sheet called Options that lists a file path in B3 and that path is called \\fileserver\\Drafting\\MBS_JOBS\\

The code then assigns a variable this path:

strpathtofile = Sheets("Options").Range("B3").Value

Finally, later on, it puts it all together with this:

strFileToOpen = strpathtofile & ActiveCell.Value & strFilename

What I need to do now is have it check a second path. So I've duplicated some of the code.

I first put the new path in B7 of the OPTIONS page. Then, I created a variable and assigned it:

Public strpathtoProj As String
strpathtoProj = Sheets("Options").Range("B7").Value

So, what I need to do is have this program also check this other path. So wondering if I need some kind of IF, THEN or ELSE statement around this part:

strFileToOpen = strpathtofile & ActiveCell.Value & strFilename

To also make it look at strpathtoProj.

I'm a "work in progress" VBA developer as a SOLO IT guy for a small business and am learning as I go.

Here are the modules that use strpathtofile (and you can see that I've already got some code in there for the strpathtoProj that I now need to use):

Sub RUN_SUMMARY_REPORT()

'assign variable... this is here just in case they haven't ran the "TEST" button
strpathtofile = Sheets("Options").Range("B3").Value
strFilename = Sheets("Options").Range("B4").Value
strThisBook = Sheets("Options").Range("B5").Value
strExtraInformation = Sheets("Options").Range("B6").Value
strpathtoProj = Sheets("Options").Range("B7").Value

'assign variable... this is here just in case they haven't ran the "TEST" button

Judging by the title of your question this is what you need, but I am a little confused by your question:

sub MainSub()
    FileOne = worksheets("SuperSecretHiddenSheet").range("A1").value
    FileTwo = worksheets("SuperSecretHiddenSheet").range("A2").value
    if bothfileExists(FileOne, FileTwo) = true then
        'do stuff
    end if
End Sub

function bothfileExists(ByRef FileOne as string, ByRef fileTwo as string) as boolean
    if (dir(fileone) <> "" and dir(fileTwo) <> "") then 
        bothfileExists = True
    else
        bothfileExists = False
    end if
end function
