2012 Data Changes: NAACCR v12.2A

 - Edit logic corrected so that edit will be skipped for cases diagnosed 2010+ with histologies 9751-9758, 9765-9769, 9970. (Description was correct, logic was wrong.)

  - For lymphoma cases NOT coded to lymph nodes or bone marrow: for diagnosis year 2011, code 88 (not collected/not applicable) is allowed, but not required; for cases diagnosed 2012 and later, 88 is no longer allowed.

 - Error messages were updated.
