Hello All!

I have noticed that if a file arrives where the same file name already exists 
the system will NOT
overwrite it.

This is a problem for example if uplink sends a replacement file along with 
say a correct .tic file
it picks up the older file and the tic file will have a different CRC for it.

Also I receive files as name.ext possibly at all hours of the day and night.
If any exist already I want the old replaced.

This is because the software that processes these files is only run at 
speicific times.

Mbse does report this error and tries to save it a few times then gives up.

Is there any setting (in mbsetup) that will fix this as I have never found one 

Vince
