Heya Thanks Justin ! I got it to work at the end.
In the end I had to use Try command to filter over materials that did not have any connections and give me out errors... I still find it difficult to master a command that can check if there is connection and if so execute script so I gotta crack on that one day... http://pastebin.com/FZsqhGVb Thanks for help again, bye.
