| I would recommend that you avoid using any names other than A-Z, 0-9 and '_' - and start with an Alpha.You can work around this by using [MyDatabaseName] but then you must a) always do that and b) maybe not everything that you use will have been tested using bracketed names.I would also recommend that you keep the database name under about 40 characters for the same reason.Kristen |
