I saw this solution earlier and it says I should delete the entry in the databae table.. I am not familiar with msql. Which entries am I to delete.. I have only set up 2 forms a user registration for and then an article content form which is giving me this issue.. and a list & search type which I have deleted and didn't find any table associated with it

Hi

In other post it referenced #__cck_core_versions.

That is the table, and then you need to look at the entries to see which one matches the values in your error message.

When you hava located the dodgy entry, you can highlight it and click the 'drop' or 'delete' button (drop is the keyword to remove entries)
