Janis gave you a perfectly valid script that DOES satisfy your requirements. You
took it and changed the case of END to end and possibly stripped off some curly
braces. In either case, your changing the script caused you to get some
unspecified error message. You then added a semi-colon which presumably got rid
of that error message but left you with non-functional code. The solution is
simple - stop screwing with the code and just use what Janis gave you. If, at
that point you still have a problem then copy the code you are executing along
with the error message and paste it here so we can help you.
