Thanks Xavier, in a 2nd post I explained I made a mistake thinking (doh) I was sending my question to the Denemo list. So I have a .denemo file only, no .ly I'm pretty new to this, so I know I can see the Lilypond compilation view, but don't know yet how to extract it as a .ly file. Trying to change things in the Lilypond view doesn't (seem to) work.
<Under GNU/Linux if you compile within a terminal, the errors appears in the terminal too. <If you use a dedicated text editor allowing you to compile within this editor, then it should also have a buffer/terminal showing the errors <when compiling. That's good to know; it might be wise to first get to know .ly files in that fashion before trying to do all in Denemo or Frescobaldi. Usually a GUI is easier than compiling yourself, but in this case it's different - I'll have to learn the inner working better first. I'm not a hero yet though with vim (also just starting with that). Here are 2 snippets from the Lilypond view - maybe it's very obvious where the mistake is?
