A primary key must have a unique value.
You must be inserting a duplicate value

Changed thread title to better describe the problem (did you know that threads whose titles do not follow the Posting Guidelines actually get FEWER responses?).

You should try to avoid getting the error at all.

If you test to see if the value is in the db before you try to insert it, all unpleasantness can be avoided.
