On a SELECT, really?

You can get it on INSERT or an UPDATE when a table has a primary key or a
unique constraint defined over it, and a 'new' key already exists in a
table.

I think you're best off examining the constraints over the table and looking
at any INSERT and UPDATE statements that could violate the constraint. The
INSERT and UPDATE might have a sub-SELECT that's not properly coded.

Subject: SQL0803: "duplicate key value specified"

I've gotten this a couple of times on generated SQL SELECT statements.
Unfortunately, since nobody's been able to reliably duplicate the
problem yet, I haven't been able to actually look at the SQL that caused
the problem.

Anybody know off-hand what throws this exception? Is it malformed code?
Malformed in what way?
