Locating duplicate values

[Dj2360]

Hello all... I recently was not able to open my 11 year dynasty in XAN's editor, with the typical "item with the same key has been added" error... However, this time, when I went into the generic.xml and searched the PLAY tab, looking at the PGID and POID values, I located 50-100 duplicate values in the POID tab, while scrolling through every single value... It took about an hour... I also triple checked my work, so I'm certain I fixed every duplicate... Still, I got the error, "item with the same key has been added"... My question is this: Are there any other places to search for duplicates other than PGID and POID?

I would recommend against trying to hand fix these. The game recycles ids for both players and coaches, so you will have duplicate values there
