Excel VBA: how to check if a file exists using Administrative share path

Question

I'm trying to create a deployment tool using excel and VBA. The spreadsheet contains an Administrative share path ie (\\\\G5RCJ55\\C$\\users\\public\\desktop\\file.txt) I have administrative rights. I pull the path using VBA and tried using dir() but that fails.

Any suggestions on how I can:
1. Check if a file exists
2. If not, copy a file to the target machine/directory (The public desktop on the C: Drive).

Sub deployToDesktop(cnt As Integer)
   Dim fullPath As String: fullPath = Cells(cnt, "D").value & "\" & Cells(cnt, "E").value

   MsgBox ("Admin path " & fullPath)

   If Not Dir(fullPath) Then
      MsgBox (fullPath)
   End If
End Sub

OK Found an answer. I need to use the FileSystemObject. This understands UNC path files. Here is the updated code:

Sub deployToDesktop(cnt As Integer)
   Dim fso As New FileSystemObject

   Dim fullPath As String: fullPath = Cells(cnt, "D").value & "\"

   If fso.FolderExists(fullPath) Then
      MsgBox ("Exists " & fullPath)
   End If
End Sub
