I think if you get an error, then you will end up with a missing backup number, so you won't have consecutive backup numbers (even if backups haven't been expired).

Hoping someone else on the bpc-dev list might be able to assist. Otherwise, I might try one of the online programming forums to see if I can get some assistance there.
