You have hand typed the script you post for debugging? Then how do you know that the error is in the script? Try to narrow the problem down to a very small set of rules, and test the script. If it still does not work then post the script as is - copy and paste. I imagine that over 50% of all script questions posted to this list would answer itself, it the scripts posted had actually been tested. I'm not flaming you, and apologize if you take it that way. I'm trying to provide you with the tools to solve the problem. I guess that if you work systematically, then one of two will happen: you solve the problem yourself, or you will be able to ask very accurate/specific questions to the list, which has a much higher chance of being answered correctly.
