bgs_vb, Write a small shell script continously sweeping the folder for the file with the given specific pattern, if the file is present you can trigger the sequence. In korn shell use if [[ -f *pattern ]]. You dont need Start Loop and End Loop stages, just a while loop that runs for a specific time ...
