AZGS database inoperable, probably because of hierarchy key conflict in map unit descriptions #24

Kingman geodatabase polygons are not editable. Opening map unit creator causes prompt crash. Map unit descriptions table has two problems with hierarchy key. One key is duplicated (0002.0005 appears twice) and a map unit (TKg) has the hierarchy key of a heading (0004). Spencer edited these keys (0002.0005 to 0002.0011, and 0004 to 0003.0021, which was the next available key under the "bedrock" heading). This changed behavior so that opening map unit creator went from no response to crash. Spencer edited hierarchy keys to restore previous values but crash response persists.

It appears that when a geodatabase is versioned, the ancillary tables are not versioned (such as the DescriptionOfMapUnits table), but these tables can be versioned. This raises the questions - if these tables are versioned, will the map unit editor work with the versioned rather than the default tables, and if so, will reconcile and post work with the versioned tables?
