Could be.  Jut last night I re-ran it after I truncated the program
table, and while it did fill in one lineup with 4 days of data prior
to filling in the other lineup with any data, when it was all said and
done, I did have data for both lineups upon completion.  Maybe I just
got used to seeing it populate real-time with a single lineup on a
single backend from the past - and cried wolf too early..

Good - I like to think of the other one as fire and forget  :)

Thanks!
