Install file only if it exists on target?

Hi, 
 
Is there a way that I can have a file only get installed if it is already present on the user's system?  I know that I can set a requirement for a choice (only install if  a particular file exists on target), however I need to do this for hundreds of files.
 
The only way I can think of doing it is to create hundreds of different choices.  Which I can do with some time, but then hundreds of receipts get put on the user's system which seems a little "unprofessional"
Does anyone know a better way?  I would be very grateful for any tips...
 
Thanks,
Andrew
