Chapter 3 DBMS Reference Guide

IllegalChar

Invalid characters for names. This is only used for generation. If there is an illegal character in a Code, the code is set between quotes during generation.

Example

IllegalChar = "+-*/!=<>'"()"
If the name of the table is "SALES+PROFITS", the generated create statement will be:
	CREATE TABLE "SALES+PROFITS"

Double quotes are placed around the table name to indicate that an invalid character is used.

During reverse engineering, any illegal character is considered as a separator unless it is located within a quoted name.
