Dear Adam, Thank you for your patience.  You last responded to my post on 1/28/13 and I've finally taken a closer look at the problem.   I originally had an issue more similar to Lucas's where I got a message after logging in.  That quickly went away, but this problem remains.

Greetings, I use to have this problem intell I did the following. Keep in mind you cant do this on the screen but only in the report I have a landscape co, so some times customers want to see what it will cost for just the lawn or just the patio.  Go into your estimate table and create a field called Phase or what ever you want to call ...

Is this a bug or something? Why would duplicates cause tables not to be allowed? Hmm. My screen shot isn't showing up but the list contains account, ...

Hi rschott, As you stated Classes can be used, and there are no other work-around's that I'm aware of but maybe one of our community members might be able to chime in if they've run into a similar situation. - Ashur
