Saveas default settings

Hello everybody!!

Ok I have a simple request, I need to know if it is possible to change the 'default' settings for the saveas command?

ok, that was too simple an explanation....

I'm writing a script file that requires the saving out of a drawing in dxf format and the script first turns filedia off, then runs through a few commands, and when it saves the drawing out at the end of the script it works fine, but first time only. The problem is overwriting the already created dxf file as when the savas command is run, and the drawing filename to saveas already exists, if i want to overwrite this the default setting command here is no, when I'd like it to be Yes, so I can just return on the command and the drawing is overwritten....

so can anybody help?, or is it not possible?

btw I'm using AutoCAD LT 2008.

Many thanks in advance...

ah!, not to worry I have found a workaround using '~' (works better now as the user has control as to where the drawing will finally be saved).
