Charles, Check out the Help of RIN's. For those who want to control the number used by Legacy, I would look into the use of User ID numbers.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong, however, am I to understand that renumbering RINs can cause confusion and is not necessarily a good thing to do. I was considering renumbering some RINs, until this thread came up. Now I am not sure whether to do it or not.

Nevertheless, you are where you are, and I suspect that your only way of dealing with this is to delete the wrong person. I would check first using the Index or Name list to ensure that you do actually have duplicates, but I strongly think that you have.
