File registry problem: entered file types not seen via RON but in DB

Question

Greetings,
I configured SCM with the new Jdev file extension types to be treated as text for
merge purposes as suggested in the RC2 release notes.
I used RON 4.11 to enter 6 or so new file extensions, then hit the OK.
These extensions are not visable but when attempting to re-enter them, I get
a SQL dup. key constrain exception.
Useing SQLplus I find them in i$sdd_file_registry
The difference between an extention I entered one at a time, vs N at a time is
the sequence (SEQ column) is larger for the N at a time:
4294966997 +/-
vs
326 for one entered
VS
8251 for those setup at SCM installation time
Will SCM still treat these as text even though I can't see them? The RULE was
set correctly to be: TXT_FILE
Thanks for any help here,
curt

It's NOT the case of the file system showing the file correctly… It is saved to the requested location… You are just overwriting it with the standard PDF… The supplied paths you defined are the same… Here I have just made a change to your code…
var myDoc = app.activeDocument; // Just so I can ignore the rest of the code…
var myPermission =confirm ("Are you sure you're ready to save?","","Save Script Execution")
if (myPermission){
var myFileName = prompt ("Enter Filename","");
if (myFileName){
var destFolder = Folder.selectDialog('Select which folder to save to Katie:');
else
alert ("Save cancelled");
if (destFolder) {
/*Save as Illustrator CS4*/
var IFile = new File(destFolder + '/' + myFileName + '.ai' );   // Now unique           
var ISave = new IllustratorSaveOptions();
    with (ISave){
        compatibility = Compatibility.ILLUSTRATOR14;
   /*Save as standard PDF*/
    var IPreset = '[Illustrator Default]'
    var pdfSave = new PDFSaveOptions();
    var pdfFile = new File(destFolder + '/' + myFileName + '.pdf' ); // Ditto here
        with (pdfSave){
             pDFPreset = IPreset;
             viewAfterSaving = false;
             compatibility = PDFCompatibility.ACROBAT5;
/*Save as smallest PDF*/
var SmallestPDF = '[Smallest File Size]';
var pdfSaveOpts = new PDFSaveOptions();  
var pdfFileCompressed = new File(destFolder + '/' + myFileName +'%2e' + 'now_format' + '.pdf' ); // This was just un-string your variable…
    with (pdfSaveOpts){
        compatibility = PDFCompatibility.ACROBAT5;   
        pDFPreset = SmallestPDF;
        viewAfterSaving = false;
destFolder.execute()
myDoc.saveAs (IFile, ISave)
myDoc.saveAs(pdfFile, pdfSave) 
myDoc.saveAs(pdfFileCompressed, pdfSaveOpts)
else {
alert("Save cancelled!")
