Have tried the below, using a variable does work but when I use foreach I am getting the problem. I have checked the file names in $AfullnameLst and they are correct. I just pass one file as a test.

Code:
 
if (-e "n02-z30-sr65-rgdt0p25.xt") then
  echo "file exists"
else
  echo "file does not exist"
endif
 
set myfile = "n02-z30-sr65-rgdt0p25.xt"
if (-e $myfile) then
  echo "file exists"
else
  echo "file does not exist"
endif
 
echo "Check if files exist"
foreach f ($AfullnameLst)
  echo ".$f."
  ls $f
  set file = "$f"
  if (-e $file) then
    echo "$f: file exists"
  endif
end
echo "Files checked"

Can you post the results from this? I was actually going to suggest hard coding the file to see if it's that command line variable.
