    Yes, That's what I am trying to tell you.. Lets say, You have column name as "Data" and another column name as "Data1" or "Data2".. So, it will give you error as duplicate data. you have.. Since it is not checking the digit you have appended after Data.. So, better give the unique column names or Manually add using ad button.

Thanks for this, I didn't realise the datasource worked like that. I changed to unique non-numeric fields and it worked.
