This article was previously published under Q245726

SYMPTOMS

If you change a validation script procedure name on the solution's workflow Design tab, you must also change all references to that validation script procedure name in the solution's Shared Script tab. Otherwise, if you try the solution functionality linked to the validation script procedure whose name was changed only on the Design tab, you may receive the following error message when you try to save changes:
VBScript:

Your changes were not saved. The form may contain missing or invalid information.

Unknown name.

CAUSE

Changing the validation script procedure name does not automatically update the references to this validation script procedure on the Shared Script tab.

RESOLUTION

If you change the validation script procedure name on the Design tab, change all references to the "old" validation script procedure name on the Shared Script tab.
