Getting Rid of Delete Confirmation

I work for a furniture company where photos are taken with an older Kodak
DX3600 camera before shipping. The dock for this camera is plugged into my
desktop computer and when a button is pushed, I have set it via the Scanners
and Cameras control panel area to download the photos to a particular folder,
put a dated folder for the photos in that folder and automatically delete the
photos from the camera. It does everything well enough but annoyingly ALWAYS
asks "Are you sure that you want to delete X photos?" and requires clicking
on the message box or hitting the enter key to delete the photos from the
card in the camera. The problem is that there are heavy shipping days where
there may be thirty or more pics on the cam and often people push the button
and walk away. If they don't notice the message later then the cam can be
taken again with the pics still on it to use that same day, risking filling
up the card and also leading to the inevitable annoying "X already exists, do
you want to copy over it?" message. I long ago disabled the delete
confirmation for items like other files, shortcuts, etc--they just go
straight to the recycle bin. I guess what I would like to know is if anyone
knows of a way to make this delete confirmation not come up and instead have
the files delete automatically. I thank you in advance for your time and
your responses.
