VFP7: File copy overlay existing file

[cj001]

Hello!

How do I force the overlaying of an existing file? Currently a message pops up asking if it is OK to overlay, but I want it to assume that it is OK to do so.


THANKS!
CJ


Below is my code:

SET PATH TO F:\I\Test\, F:\B\TestlnTotal = ADIR(laTemp,[F:\I\Test\*.pdf])

IF lnTotal > 0
THIS.Enabled = .F.
CREA CURSOR TEXTFILES (filename C(254))
APPE FROM ARRAY laTemp
SCAN
xfile2 = ("F:\B\TRND\&quot
xfile3 = ("F:\I\TRND\*.pdf&quot
RUN /N &xfile
COPY FILE ALLT(TEXTFILES.filename) TO (xfile2) ;
+ ALLT(TEXTFILES.filename)
ENDSCAN
DELETE FILE(xfile3)
THIS.Enabled = .T.
ENDIF

SET SAFETY OFF

just a tip:
I usally globally set safety off but not always so when I need spacific set change I make a habit of grabbing current setting then change then put back like

OldSafetySetting=set('SAFETY')
set safety off
delete file myFile.txt
set safety (OldSafetySetting)

I do this in just about all cases where I change a SET inside code other then my Init setup for the Application lots of extra work but has saved my A** several times
