No errors. No messages. It just does NOTHING

display dialog "Se borraran TODOS los archivos de las carpetas IQ"
buttons {"SI", "NO", "Preguntar"}
set the botonpulsado to the button returned of the result
if the botonpulsado is "SI" then ,
tell application "Finder"
tell folder "IRIS Color "
tell folder "IQ Folders"
delete every item of folder "Add To Queue "
delete every item of folder "Hot "
delete every item of folder "Output "
delete every item of folder "Print to Disk "
delete every item of folder "Spool "
end tell
end tell
end tell
if the botonpulsado is "NO" then display dialog "No se ha borrado nada"
if the botonpulsado is "Preguntar" then display dialog ,
"PREGUNTA A C.F."

In the meantime, I opted to rewrite this small script for network, so i can
perform the task from another Mac... and it works OK. But this is not a good
solution, since now I need to copy this last script to some other Macs.
My first intention was to put the first script right in the wanted machine
(acting as a RIP for digital color proofs).

I also suppose that all those delete lines can be shortened into one, but at
least I wanted it to work first. There will be time enough for shortening
later (as soon as I learn)...

Sounds correct.
