Well, there is something a little bit wrong with the original, inline

the script run "for" Sunday.
The error might not be noticed until after one thinks the script is
running
fine and is no longer checking the result each time.
Have you already noticed such a problem (dangerous for a backup script)
?
In that case, would the two lists script, be safer (though less
efficient), than my original method.
Thanks a lot to you, Paul, Michelle and Axel.
Yours.
