Duplicate Keys When Loadin Input Field

Hello:

I'm getting this error running the following load script and cannot determine why.  I use the exact same code in a different dashboard with different dimensions and it runs fine.  As always, any and all help is appreciated.

Here's the error text from the failed load:

Here's the code from the load script that I'm executing:

INPUTFIELD DI_DIM_SortOrder;
INPUTFIELD DI_Exp_SortOrder;

DI_CustomisableChart_Complex_Dimension:
Load

,RowNo() AS DI_DIM_SortOrder

Row 17 and 22 in the table DI_CustomisableChart_Complex_Dimension have the same field name:  effective_item_name

If you fix this anomaly it works without a problem.

It is not very clearly documented actually that there needs to be at least one extra field in the same table as the input field and it has to be unique. Additional fields don't have to be unique though.

Look at the Example 2 in this document page and the comment saying something about it:

Crap!!!  Peter, thank you so much for your help.  Sometimes, the obvious isn't so obvious and another set of eyes is needed.  I guess I looked at it for so long, that I just missed it.  Thank you again.  I greatly appreciate it.  I'll mark your answer as the correct response.
