View as plain text  
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?
