DSPetry, Actually, I think it's sort of funny. Having been a programmer in a previous life, I know that there's some poor guy or gal that's going to have to go to some lengths to fix that. I'm presuming that you merely tried to post a message, and that you didn't do anything unusual (for example using a new feature, or something like that). The error is either a programming error on RB's part, or a database failure by whatever vendor supplied their database. It's very unusual. The problem is that there are now two records on the AZNT thread with the same "key", that is message #1510. To restore order to the thread, one of them must be removed. But it's a real pain in the butt to remove one, especially when people are still trying to post to the thread. So, to me, I see humor in it, because it's typical of the way my days used to go when I was in programming. LOL!!! KJC
