ARX ERROR: eDuplicateKey Error

[ApolloTreatingYou]

I've been encountering this error anytime I try to copy something from one drawing to another. It repeats itself forever forcing me to have to close autocad through the task manager. Anyone have an idea what this is or how I can fix it?

[Skeeps]

oh, I remember this error, I think the answer is that you hold down shift while copying, or pasting.
I'm sorry I'm not hundred per cent sure, but it's been awhile since I saw that one.

Thanks that hotfix seemed to have done it. I guess it's a pretty well known error.

we uploaded the hotfix to try and fix the error eduplicatekey and we're still getting the error message. Any other help would be great =) Thanks

Did you use the correct version?

What is the source of the drawing you are having the problem with?

[Dyer1]

I did use the current version but I dug a little deep and found out that this user didn't have a service pk on his machine and once we updated that the error went away. Thanks for taking time to assist us =)

I guess it pays to check on things like that. Good to hear the problem is solved and thank you for updating us.
