# The purpose of this script is to open a database and table and then validate its contents based on 
# user defined functions that specify rules that must be followed.  The table contents are not changed,
# and the script reports the number of records that failed for each test.  
#
# The script is designed for additional test to be added easily and it can be modified to report additional 
# information about the records that failed each test.
