+/**
+  @file
+  @brief Checks whether a folder exists in SAS Drive
+  @details Returns 1 if the folder exists, and 0 if it doesn't.  Works by
+  attempting to assign a fileref with the filesrvc engine.  If not found, the
+  syscc is automatically set to a non zero value - so in this case it is reset.
+  To avoid hiding issues, there is therefore a test at the start to ensure the
+  syscc is zero.
+
+  Usage:
+
+    %put %mfv_existfolder(/does/exist);
+    %put %mfv_existfolder(/does/not/exist);
+
+  @param path The path to the folder on SAS drive
+
+  <h4> SAS Macros </h4>
+  @li mf_abort.sas
+  @li mf_getuniquefileref.sas
+
+  @version 3.5
