How to pause WF until LastWriteTime changes.

HI, I have a workflow (WF) where I output to an xlsx file.  In that same WF I want to be able to pick up that same file once it is updated for transformation and output that result to another file.  I need to loop/pause the second part of the WF until the first part is done creating the output file.  I was thinking using the LastWriteTime using the directory tool to see when it changes possibly in a macro but not sure how to do this.  Any suggestions.  Thanks
