Is the a way to automatically replace databases when the script is running?

Hi There
May you please possible assist. I was wondering if there is an IDEA scripting function, methode or piece of code in IDEA that will allow IDEA to automatically click on "YES" when the script is asking for the existing database to be replaced. The problem I have currently is that I have large scripts and i have to sit there and press yes everytime there's a database that needs to be replaces, in order for the script to continue running.
Thank you.

global variable

Hi, I am new to using IDEAScripting. I would like to define global variable(s) in the main sub that I can then use in functions. Could you give me an example of how to do this? I am doing this so that I can change the name of the database to re-use the macro. Currently I am having to define the same variable in each function. 
thanks for your time,
