Rose and Sara,

Based on looking at your catalog* you're on version 2.3.7.  I believe there are bugs specifically with the Validate function that were not fixed until after the EOL of 2.3, so it's likely that upgrading to the newest 2.4 or 2.5 will be your best hope of repair for that functionality.

I know that's not a fix, but I hope it helps.
