Thank you.
No, I did not pull until now, but found the error by hand.
Normally the programs sorts out such errors, but for some reason or 
other not always. Perhaps I have to invest in a code writer program or 
something. :-)

Also tried Liam's idea, and it works. Next step is to figure out how to 
get the command to tell me what is wrong, not only correcting it.
