Problem import enum already exist

Project import error!

I have to import a big xpo file from one environtment to another environtment.
The project xpo file contents many new EDTs, tables, forms, etc..
These are brand-new tables, but everytime I run the import, the system keeps
saying something like 'A table, Extended Data Type, Base Enum or class called
ellItemDesignerTable already exists. Import of Table aborted'..

It would import fine if I rename the table..
I ran the job to get table name from table id, AX does show the table name
does exist on AX already..but cannot see it in the AOT..

This problem happens many time for many tables..

If everyone has any idea or tips on the importing big project, please let me
know.

Thanks a lot,

Hi Tyra,

You local cache file is probably corrupt. Try removing the AUC file.
It should be located at: C:\Documents and Settings\[USERNAME]\Local
Settings\Application Data for xp, or C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local for
vista.

If that does not do it, sync the data dictionary (that syncs the definition
in the aot to the sql server).
It also could not hurt to stop the AOS and remove the AOI file and the
restart.

Also: are you ID's in sycn between your environment? I mean: do you always
'export with id's' and 'import with id's'? You should try keeping the ID's of
the object in you environments the same, it will save you a lot of trouble.
If you are not keeping them in sync, just tick off the 'import with id's'
checkbox when importing (but I would not really recommend it).

Try removing the AUC first (when the client is closed) :-).

Hope this helps,
Best regards,

Removing the .AUC resolved the problem beautifully. Thank you all so much for
