Duh...found it. CB was not lying or messing up at all. I actually had two users registered. One that I created as admin, and one that was created for me as editor. I changed the username and email address of the editor so I had unique usernames in user manager, and things worked.
Darn, noone to blaim or hang this "messup" on, LOL....
Thanks for a Great job on CB
