Bogus error message trying to convert Lookup to Master-Detail
Am I crazy or what!
I have a custom object called "POC" that was originally created with a Lookup relationship to Opportunities. I want to change the relationship to a Master-Detail and get the standard: "You must first create a Lookup relationship, populate the loookup field with data in all records, and then change the relationship type to Master-Detail."
So I run a report and guess what? All Records in the custom object have values in the Lookup field already! So why am I getting this particular error? The funny thing is that I was able to make this change in my Sandbox (albeit with less records.)
Any help is greatly appreciated!

So turns out I was mistaken... when I went through the long list of records there was a sneaky little oneat the bottom of the list that escaped me! fixed it and now field type change worked. Sometimes this can be a frustrating job, butg I really do love it!
