-**fScan Reference Manual, Chapter 2 (CmdLineOptions): set overwrite** 
- 
-===== Set Overwrite -- Set the file overwrite flag ===== 
-**usage:**\\ 
- ** -set overwrite **\\ 
- ** -set overwrite 0 ** 
- 
-The OVERWRITE flag is used to indicate whether fScan will overwrite existing data files. 
-By default, OVERWRITE is zero and any attempt to overwrite an existing file will generate an error message. 
-If OVERWRITE is non-zero, write operations will overwrite existing data files without generating any message. 
- 
-The OVERWRITE flag can be set temporarily using the [[jvs:fscan:manual:chapter2:writeover|-WRITEOVER (-w)]] command. Set this way, the flag remains set only until the next file writing command. This allows you to selectively indicate which data files to overwrite.\\ 
-For example: 
-  -o exam.wdf -w           ; force writing of file named "exam.wdf", even if it already exists 
-  -o -w                    ; force writing of current data set to file, even if that file exists 
- 
-The default behavior of the OVERWRITE flag can changed using the -SET OVERWRITE command. 
-   -set overwrite 
-   -set overwrite 0
