overwrite / replace existing external.txt file

I appologize in advance for this... but I've searched the manual without luck.

When I perform a "SELECT * FROM tablename OUTFILE filename.txt" I get a "file aready exists" error and I can't for the life of me figure out how to tell MySQL to overwrite the file or how to delete the file in a different query.

Thanks
Shawn
