Hi,

Anyone have an idea on the cause of this error?

Data access error. (O-ELEMENT*01)
%RMS-F-DUP, duplicate key detected (DUP not set)

Press RETURN to continue.

When we try to add elements to a dictionary we get the above error on update
(using "pow"), we can still add elements to other dictionaries ok.

The elements being added definitely dont exist in the dictionary allthough
the problem started after an element had been deleted and then was tried to
be reentered.  There is definitely no one else accessing the dictionary.

We use ph 710g1 on alpha vms 7.3

tia,
