You didn't specify which version of ARS... It sounds like you imported something to the system and that changed the default next field ID for the form you are working on (and an ARS patch can do this). Setting the ID before you save the field when creating it should reset the next ID to whatever you set + 1

I tried going in and added a field and changed the ID to 1000002 and it worked fine. Why did it use to work and not now?? Can Remedy update like a software patch or upgrade do this because I know the guys did some work on the server not too long ago?
