Dear Jean-Pierre,

thanks a lot for your help. Your code is working great. If I may I have another question ..

The archive system may return error message sometimes. I know how to catch shell retrun code but here it's more a message than a value.

It could be for exemple :

Code:
 RC = 21 USER NOT CONNECTED

Do you know how I could catch this message to end the script ?

any idea ?

I am thinking about something like this :

Code:
if [ $file != $file ]

Thanks again for your help
