In general, aPriori will accept the following characters when naming components or scenarios:

!@#$%^&()_`~-_=+\|}{[]’;:/?.,

Note that the following characters are accepted but can cause problems later when exporting.

><”*

Likewise, \ is accepted, but will not show up later when you search for a component.

Finally, there are a couple of restrictions for naming VPEs which are covered in the VPE Administration Guide.
