Frank, I don't believe there's a restriction about special characters in object names, I believe the issue is with the resulting url and maybe a conflict between the web server that you are using. If there were an issue with certain characters in form names you would have seen the same type of issue in the User Tool.

Had a form that would not open in the MT. Had alink that opened it as a dialog but all we got was a blank (white) form. Had MT client side logging turned on and the only thing you could see was the alink trying to open the dialog. I even tried to open the form using a direct link with no success. Would just get a blank page with no source code. I inactivated all alinks but that did not help. I re-saved the form and flushed the cache. Still no page would display and there were no errors in any log files. I even re-imported the form with no luck. This form works fine on MT 6.3 p20. The name of the form is: Host\Device Validation. The next step was renaming the form thinking maybe the "\" was the problem. I renamed it to "Host Device Validation". This fixed the problem. The form opened with no issues. I do not recall seeing anything about certain characters not being allowed in form (object) names. __Platinum Sponsor: www.rmsportal.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" html___ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor: www.rmsportal.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"
