I think the issue may just be the Unique IDs being generated are not unique. I found org-id-method is set to 'org'. So why am I not getting unique IDs? I had asked about this before and I thought Carsten said something about a possible timing issue?? BTW, I'm on windows with no uuidgen. But my files are used via thumbdrive on a Linux system as well. So sticking with 'org' is probably the better bet. Thoughts? Thanks! ---------------------------------------- David A.
