Tom:  Ouch!   How do you upload forms from other databases?  If you do it 
from the Database Explorer, and the version is an updated one, then it should 
include the "delete rows from sys_forms3" at the top.  This was added at 
some point during 7.6, but it wasn't always there.  Previous to that version 
you had to make sure you manually deleted the form first yourself.     I have 
a little routine that I prefer to run from the R> prompt to do this, and I 
have the routine putting the delete statement in my file.

If you ever do an  "unload all from sys_forms3" then the delete statements 
aren't in there, so you would have to manually wipe the table clean before 
you bring in that file.

Otherwise, the only thing I can think of is that the table (which is a 
pseudo-table) had some kind of lock that prevented the row from being deleted.
