Have you heard of the "man" command? This takes you to the "manual page" of a given command. Try it... "man cp" and then read it. To your delight, you will find the "-f or --force" parameter. I'd suggest trying this first before asking questions. You'll probably find out more information about a command that you'd didn't think possible. :-) For example....you may even notice the "-a" parameter that is the same as "-dpR" and that may come in handy from time to time.
