Error In Validation - Sandbox Publishing

Error In Validation - Sandbox Publishing

So I get the "Error In Validation" error when I attempt to publish 4 different reports from the Sandbox.  All other modules (dozens) have published fine but these 4 various reports will not.  I have inspected them and cannot find any commonalities amongst them. One of them uses Custom Functions but even when I comment those out, it still throws the Error In Validation" error.  This error appears even before it asks for a version number. It is different than the "Error In Publishing" error. 

I cannot find any published info on this error in online documentation or through the forums.  Has anyone experienced this error and how did you correct?

Thanks
Doug
