Error updating Process Form: Same Column exist with a different variant

Question

Hi All,
I have a process form of a resource with following fields :
Name VariantType Length FieldLabel FieldType Order
UD_EDIR_BWUSER   boolean       1          BWUser    Checkbox      25
UD_EDIR_ISUUser    boolean       1          ISUUser    Checkbox      26
Now, I have to changes these field from boolean to string. For that, I created a new process form version and update like this:
1. Delete these fields first.
2. Add two new fields:
UD_EDIR_BWUSER String 4 BWUser Textfield 25
UD_EDIR_ISUUser String 4 ISUUser Textfield 26
Now, when I tried saving the form, I got following error
Same Column exist with a different variant in current or previous form.
I also tried creating again a new version of process form and tried updating these field instead of re-creating them but I was able to update the FieldType only ( not able to update the Variant type and length).
If anyone know how to resolve this issue, please reply.
Cheers,
Sunny

Hi Rajiv,
Thanks for the reply. I re-created these field in a new version but gave a different name this time like this:
UD_EDIR_SAP_BW_USER String 4 SAPBWUser TextField 25
UD_EDIR_SAP_ISU_USER String 4 SAPISUUser TextField 26
and it worked for me.
Cheers,
Sunny
