SYMPTOMS
The Commerce Server 2000 Business Desk allows you to enter duplicate Name values for Content Sizes. However, the Business Desk does not allow duplicate Tag values.



CAUSE
Commerce Server 2000 Business Desk does not check for Name value duplication.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in Commerce Server 2000.



MORE INFORMATION
Although you can create multiple Content Sizes with the same Name value, this does not impact the usability of the Business Desk. When you create a new advertisement, the list of Content Sizes contains multiple entries with the same name. As a result, if you create multiple Content Sizes with the same height and width, you cannot distinguish between the two sizes, and some of your advertisements do not appear as expected.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior
 Start the Commerce Server Business Desk for your site. Click Campaigns, and then click Reference Tables. Create a new Content Size with the following values:

Tag: half1

Name: Half Size

Width: 1

Height: 1

and click Accept. Create a new Content Size with the following values:

Tag: half2

Name: Half Size

Width: 1

Height: 1

and click Accept. Click Save to save both Content Sizes. If you create a new advertisement, you cannot distinguish between the two sizes because both are displayed as Half Size (1 x 1) in the Content Size list.
