You are attempting to create a new element in your program and have given it a name that is already being used. Examples of this are: - Giving a new procedure the name of an existing procedure. - Giving a new variable the name of an existing procedure. - Starting a variable name with the letters FN. There can also be a conflict of file names. Attempting to create a file using the name of a file that already exists in the current directory will cause this error. Either - Use a different name in the dialog box, or - Cancel the command and either change the name of the existing item that is causing the name conflict, or delete it.
