At Fri, Jan 14, 2005 at 02:43:52PM -0500 or thereabouts, 
suspect Courtney was observed uttering:

My approach would be a bit unconventional compared to how Jay was trying to
do it, but I'd use conditional logic as illustrated by the pseudo-code below:

if runfile exists
     run report
     remove runfile
     end
if runfile does not exist
     create runfile
     end

....And I'd simply set this logic to run -every- Friday.  No worrying about
dates, etc.  It just flip-flops.
