    It means that you probably already have an AddNew_Record sub or function in the new program.

    Press CTRL+F and do a search for "AddNew_Record" Like martin said, you will find two subs/functions with that name. Combine the code from the seperates ones into a single sub and you should be good to go. Please mark thread as resolved if you get it working. Thanks. Good luck.
