Group Validation 
A group is valid if the syntax is valid and all of its components are valid. A group is 
validated component-by-component. A component is valid if its type is valid, its 
component range is valid, and, if the component has a rule, the rule evaluates to 
TRUE. 
Note  When a component rule is evaluated, any invalid data used in a component rule is 
evaluated with a value of NONE.
