Error - Instance name " encountered in 644 different generic models

I am getting the following error:

 

instances.JPG

 

Typically when I get this it has a valid instance name and I find duplicates and correct them.

Any suggestions on this? (Only two systems, so no Windchill here).

Thanks, 

Dale

Hi,

it seems to me that I saw this error message once. I'll try to find more information tomorrow.

Update index did the trick again.

 

Does anyone know why I might be getting this in the first place and how I can avoid it in the future (besides doing an index update).

 

FYI - I thought this looked familiar. I guess I need my short term memory to go back more than a couple of years.  🙂
