> ## checkForDB

> This procedure checks to see if the databases exist. If the databases exist, it sets the following properties:

> - `connect_params_``dbname` — The connection parameters for the database as derived from the `<database>` node.

> - `dbname``_exists` — Indicates if the database exists on disk.

> - `dbname``_does_not_exist` — Indicates that the database does not exist on disk.

> Where `dbname` is the name of the specific database.

> Location: install\prc\inuimngrp.p

> Parameters:

> `INPUT pcDBToCheck AS CHARACTER`

> The name of the database to check.

> Returns: None (procedure)

> Notes: The two opposite properties for whether the database exists are needed because you cannot evaluate `NOT` for a property and have the token expanded.
