Comments

• Please find the below explanation for the problem
  i.e why this macro is not working at second time.
  In the Script, it is written explicitly the name of
  the new Product to insert.
  For the first insert, this name is not already taken
  by another product (no part number conflict). So, it
  is correctly inserted.
  After the delete, the deleted product is kept in
  memory (in case of undo).
  For the second insert, since there is already a
  product with the desired name, the insertion cannot
  be done with the given name. That's why it fails.
  By pass for the problem:
  Either the insertion need a precise name. So, in
  this case, the macro must be launched on an
  assembly that doesn't contain the name. Or you
  can insert the product without specifying its name.
