Make use of `overwrite` explicit? about rpivottable HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi @smartinsightsfromdata, i did try to use both TRUE and FALSE overwrite in my code and i don't see any changes to my output. Can you elaborate a bit more how this parameter affecting the output? Besides, what is the motivation that makes you think to change your current approach (forced TRUE) going to FALSE? thanks.

@smartinsightsfromdata makes sense. This would certainly help when working with multiple datasets (or even subsets of data).

Also, agree with your point on defaulting overwrite = TRUE.

@King23 Apologies for the confusion: I still have to make the change! I am just trying to have some suggestion before actually implementing it...

@smartinsightsfromdata, thanks for clarification. If it is configurable (TRUE/FALSE), i would love to try it out once you made the change. :)

I've currently abandoned this possibility. Please let me know if anybody is interested in experimenting with it.
