Controls name

[PepSoft]

Hello:
What are the conditions for control names?

In IDE:
"TextBox?" or "TextBox#" are not valid names.
message: "Invalid Control Name"

but in runtime:
AddTextBox("Form1","TextBox#",10,10,100,25)

runs correct.

There are any problem whith Add Controls whith punctuation symbol in the name?

PD: Sorry for my English

You should only use letters, numbers and underscore character.
Controls names (and variables names) must also begin with a letter.
The AddObjects keywords do not test this. It could cause all kinds of strange errors.

Thanks Erel.
Sorry, Can you give me an example name with underscore character?

[Erel]

Sorry. You are right.
Controls do not support underscores.

I have dynamically created and referenced controls with a space character as part of the name, without any problems.
