I definitely recall that we need to specify where the error message shows up, but I can't remember if that's one of the options here.

Haha, this is a piece of cake! B) Error condition formula and C) Error message location are the obvious choices. And don't worry, if you get it wrong, you can always blame it on the 'Northern Trail Outfitters' curse.

Hmm, I'm not so sure about that. Shouldn't the administrator also be using A) Formula return type? I mean, how else are they going to define the condition for the validation rule?
