Hi Jordi,

I'm afraid that your thread got hijacked to talk, once again, about 
the new forum.  I haven't seen your question on the new forum so I 
thought I'd answer it here.

I had this problem only two days ago.  It took me a while to work out 
what was going wrong.

Firstly, note that this category formula is a little unusual in that 
it can:

* Only appear in a category created directly under "<at>all" - it 
can't be created in a sub category.

* Only be used once, ever.

If you're getting the error above, then you're probably breaking one 
of these rules.

Personally I'd deleted the "1 - Unassigned" category and tried to use 
the "<at>unassigned" expression as part of a formula in a subcategory 
for controlling my workflow.  I got the error above.  Then I tried to 
recreate the original category, and got the error above again.  
Panic!  I managed to get the "1 - Unassigned" category recreated only 
after having removed the "<at>unassigned" expression from the sub 
category formula.

Perhaps the error message could be made a little clearer?
