Here is a foolproof debugging method:

- Start your vi, load the file and position the cursor in line 1.
- Hit <ESC> (repeatedly if you are paranoid) to get into command mode
- press "/" to initiate a search and then '"' to search for double quotes
- press "n" repeatedly togo from one found double quote to the next until you find the problem in this line:

Code:
   echo $Date "archivedb for $dbtype $dbsite has completed\n" >> $logsumm"

To find out what is wrong with this line is left as an edifying exercise for the reader who by now will surely be impatient to put his newly found debugging skills to good use.

Was that "as soon as possible" for you, Sir? May i bring you some coffee while you work your arkane magic with the mysterious computer-thingie?

I hope this helps.
