I am not importing the data into an existing schema (AP) which has the same table. I created a brand new schema (CUSTOM). While there are no tables in that schema (CUSTOM), I am trying to import into the new schema (CUSTOM) from the export file. Why would it complain about duplicate records is beyond me, since there are 0 rows in the schema (CUSTOM) prior to importing starting. Is Oracle not allowing me to have the record in a table if this record exists in another schema (AP)?
