ActiveX -overwrite dialog disable

I am using a very slightly modified "Write Table to XL.vi"
I generate a table every 6 hours (new data).
I want to save the table always to the same name, and then email it to the project holder (as an attachment).
I get a dialog asking permission to overwrite the file; since this program runs continuously, I need to disable the dialog box popup.
what method/input do I need to add?
thanx

A quick way to solve this problem is to delete the file first. Find it in the Advanced file functions. Wire this to your file path inside case 1 use the dup file path to create data dependency then wire to the save method.
