Item Number already in use PS 2009

[rsmabery]

While itemizing an assembly, PS 2009 itemized an assembly as 100106.  This typically happens when another item with that number already exists.

I cannot find any reference to an Item with the number that it should be, in this case PREMG-PLDM10232-01000.

I have searched the Number property (with Find Latest Versions only option unchecked) and cannot find anything.  I have searched other properties such as file name, part number in hopes to find a connection.  I have searched all items that have a 10232 in them and looked at earlier Item releases to see if I can find one that got renamed.

If I try to manually Change Item Number to what it should be, I get an error with the Restriction "The entered item number is already in use.".

I have read other posts about this but none have provided a solution for me.  How can I find the offending item (if it exists or how can I resolve this?  Is it possible to export all items along with their history in order to search?

What might be happening is that the item number was used at some point in the past, but that item has since been renamed.

If you log a support case Product Support should have tool to help you figure out how to get this item number back.
