Cheque printing warning - "this is a duplicate cheque number"

SOLVED

Occasionaly I have had an issue printing a cheque. 

When I hit print a warning comes up saying "this is a duplicate cheque number".  It isn't a duplicate. I view the cheque log each time to confirm it is not a duplicate and it isn't. I have tried changing to the next cheque number and again I get this warning.  Eventually it will let me print on a subsequent number.  Recently it is happening more often.  I have 2 companies I use sage 50 for - it only happens with one company.

Has anyone else had this issue?

Thanks Diane

    mystery solved...11 years ago these same cheque numbers were used and the payment posted but they didn't print the cheque (they must have handwritten cheques then)  only the odd one was printed and that's why I was getting this message only occasionally  So I have changed my cheque numbering system.
