Solution 1

This error is because you are trying to insert a record with a key of 12 when a record already exists in the table with a key of 12.

The error is pretty explicit: you are trying to enter a row containing a value in the Primary Key column which is already in a different row.

Primary keys must be unique: you cannot have any duplicates under any circumstances.
Whatever you are trying to do, you probably need to rethink your whole design.
