Thanks Dave, I didn't know that. A little more experimentation and I have noticed that the position of the / determines where the name appears in the sorted names lists. So team "Tim 'The Beast'/Bloggs" dog makes Tim appear in alphabetical order sorted using 'Bloggs', whereas team "Tim/'The Beast' Bloggs" dog put him at the start of the list as the ' character is sorted ahead of A.
I've put this into the Tutorial. Does anyone know how to include double-quotes in a name? I can't seem to escape the double-quote character.
