Wow, I am a little tired... this is the query causing me the problem...

INSERT INTO jobs
(SELECT * FROM tmpJobs WHERE NOT EXISTS
(SELECT * FROM jobs WHERE jobs.customer_number <=>
tmpJobs.customer_number and jobs.job_number <=> tmpJobs.job_number));

Why is the id not creating distinct #s?

I have the following query:

INSERT INTO summaries (entity_name, job_type, job_status)
(SELECT entity_name, "GOV", "Non-Workable" FROM tmpSummaryTable);

The only other column I have is id and it is primary key autonumber int.

Why would I get the following error?

ERROR 1062 (23000) at line 3: Duplicate entry '5' for key 1

Why is the query trying to enter a duplicate entry?

This makes no sense to me :-).

Thanks

John
