Interesting... I think I all-too-often assume someone's using the dame DB design paramters as I do, and I completely missed this until you said something, Jochem.
I always, always, always set the first column in my table to primary key, identity, and often (but NOT always) a clustered index. I read right past the "I have a duplicate" part... and making the column an ID or using a UNIQUE constraint would have prevented the second record from occurring at all. Good catch.
