  ****************************************************************
  Generated Java code for a TextForm or PrintForm may contain
  "duplicate field" errors.  The duplicate fields have names
  that begin with $, followed by a series of numbers, and
  ending in "$ConstantFormField".
  
  This is an intermittent problem.  It may happen at any time
  for any form, but it does not happen every time any form is
  generated.
  

Problem conclusion

• The generator will now create a unique name for each field.
  The new names are based on a field's position on the form,
  and two fields cannot have the same position.
  

Temporary fix
