747-400 Overspeed Warning

I've always assumed that you will get an overspeed warning when you exceed flap limits (i.e. when you fly into the upper red band on the airspeed tape during approach).... perhaps because of my overfamiliarity with a certain 744 desktop simulator ... yet I am unable to find any official Boeing manuals which state this is the case.

Do you only get warnings if you exceed the normal flaps-up Vmo/Mmo (ignoring 5th Pod and Gear Down Dispatch switches for the moment)?

Thanks.
Regards.
Q.

P.S. Are there any Boeings programmed to give you flap limit overspeed warnings? (767, 737NG, 777, etc?)
