Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Reporting:
Query/Results for UNIX

> ## Shared variable in validation expression

> Avoid using shared variables in validation expressions. Since there is no easy way to place the “`DEFINE SHARED VARIABLE`” declaration into the query procedure, these types of validation expressions cause problems.

> If there are shared variables in the validation expressions, edit the validation expression. Note that you can manually edit the .p file, but an Application Rebuild might undo it.

> Note: The use of the `INPUT()` function in the validation phase causes compile errors because there is no user input.
