I have it set up in my nightly maintenance batch file   
   to process incoming nodelist files, and copy them to   
   the needed directories.   
      
   However, sometimes, I get a file that's already in   
   there (extracted from the *.Z?? file), and the   
   system stops at the prompt, asking if I want to    
   overwrite it (the answer is yes). Sometimes, I don't    
   discover that until the next morning.   
      
   I know that the command ECHO Y|DEL *.* will wipe out   
   the contents in a directory (one has to be careful   
   with that).   
      
   I think that ECHO A| (followed by the PKUNZIP command   
   desired) would work, but I'm not sure of the syntax.   
      
   It's probably a simple answer, but I'm afraid if I    
   try something, without being sure of it, I'll get into   
   trouble!!   
      
   Any help would be appreciated.
