Replication causing duplicate records? We've never seen that, and it shouldn't be possible. Maybe you replicated to 2 different source databases to the same target?
Hm. Of course it is possible that this is, at heart, a PEBKAC issue. I will try to replicate my experience, perhaps I was too hasty in jumping on the ML ...
If you can zip up the two databases and mail them to me, or post them some where publicly accessible, I can take a look and see if I can figure out what happened.
I unfortunately was testing with copies of production user data and if I did that my boss would literally eviscerate me; regardless I unthinkingly deleted it upon seeing the error without considering its significance. However, I will be testing it thoroughly with non- production data and will send that if it happens again. I've tried the replication another two times without problems so I really don't know what's up.
Anyway, thanks for the clarifications - I had thought it shouldn't be possible for that to happen, and everything you described was just as I had thought/assumed! Perhaps I just got "lucky" : )
