What you *didn't* tell us is probably key to this: How did you introduce the
second batch to the 3494 library?  Did you tell Checkin to do
CHECKLabel=Yes, No, or Barcode?  It sounds like ADSM has seen the internal
labels on the duplicate set.  You'll probably have to delete the
bogus volume names from the volume history, at least, before
proceeding to label them.         Richard Sims, BU
