Thanks for confirming. Any feedback on the other parts of my comment? Without answers to these I won't have much useful feedback to provide quite yet.

You could take the input Template Name and use that in a query to fetch the list of existing templates. If the query returns an empty dataset then your Template Name is unique, else there's a duplicate.

The validation is just to make the template name unique.

Why not? What were you expecting it to do exactly, and what is it doing instead? Can you post a sample of your code that's doing this validation?

Also just for clarification, is the validation you're doing on the template name just making sure it's unique? Or something else?
