Subject: Re: [UFT] Reserved character clean-up

I don't think you'll have trouble with any of these. Look at help - search
for "reserved" and read where it is you should not use certain of these
characters. The only thing I'm not absolutely sure of is the # sign - it
depends on what they define as "text" - but I *think* you're safe with it
where they are.
