Looking at the overly complicated (and erroneous) script that you posted, making use of the proposals in the handful of your recent threads (none which you neither commented nor thanked, BTW) seemingly pertaining to the same topic - why don't you show the underlying problem and all the input data instead of asking a little question here and a tiny puzzle there? People in here might come up with a consistent proposal that hits the bull's eye.
