Hi Jen, Nope, as far as I know, at the file to create prompt, you cannot overwrite the preexisting file. What I do is open the file, go to the top of the document by press space with dots 1-2-3 (read with t), and then erase to the end of the document by pressing backspace with 4,5,6 (control with d).
Again, there is no way to get rid of the "review options" prompt. If you know that you're opening a file that will prompt you, that is any file type other than a keyword text or braille file, simply hit enter twice in rapid succession upon opening, and that should take care of things.
