I didn't even notice it at first because the error was when trying to add records to the "INVY" file.  Lucky it was a problem was actually in the "XINVY" file. XINVY only contains processing tables and no data, so I just deleted the key and data and it's fixed now.

Guess I would have known that if I read the error message a little closer, Lol 

I wish I knew what caused something like that in the first place though.
