Supported characters in database and object names

Question

What characters can I use in my database filename and database object (table, query, form, macro, module, report) identifiers so that they work with EQL?

Solution

Database names

To ensure maximum compatibility with EQL, ensure that your database names are composed only of ASCII characters, with the extra restriction that EQL does not permit semicolons (;).

Object names

EQL supports almost all ASCII characters in object names as well, excepting only the tilde (~) character, which cannot appear as the last character in an object name.
