Did you look in Access's VBA's help for Kill?

I bet it's there.

And thank you for your help, Dave.

I don't speak the Access, but doesn't its flavor of VBA support the Kill
command.

In excel's flavor of VBA, I'd either use Kill (to delete the existing
file
first) or

application.displayalerts = false
'do the save
application.displayalerts = true

If this doesn't help and you don't get a good answer here, I'd ask in a
forum
dedicated to Access.

Hello,

to export the select query data to excel file in VBA code you can use
DoCmd.OutputTo or DoCmd.TransferSpreadShet method. Ok, you can use
both
types as a macro action too.

In my applications I'm using both versions. In one of my programs I
have
to
transfer the data every night to the same excel file. Because of the
fact
that the file of the fixed name has been existing from the previous
night
Access program always notices me about that and asks me to overwrite
the
file. I don't find any argument (parameter) in either of methods to
demand
default overwriting. I want to avoid to click all the times, so I want
to
automate the overwriting. Is there really the only solution to delete
the
excel file first and only then export the query data to the file,
which
will
be new created? Or did I overlook any fact?
