Yes, switch it to "overwrite".
These setting has nothing to do with the AmiBroker database. It is provided only for users
that do not use AmiBroker.
AmiBroker ALWAYS keeps the history regardless of this setting, because it is NOT AmiBroker setting
at all.
It is AmiQuote only setting and only controls appending to temporary download files used by AmiQuote.
These files are NOT needed once data are imported.
The process is as follows
AmiQuote downloads a file-> creates temporary file -> tells AmiBroker to import the file
-> AmiBroker adds data to its database -> the temporary file is not needed at this point.
