Naming Nodes

Review these considerations when naming nodes.

• Do not use commas, the shared node delimiter, or the hierarchy delimiter in node names. Using commas in node names can cause problems when working with certain properties that are comma-delimited, such as Ancestor List, Child List, and client-created node lists.

• Do not use the characters defined in system preferences for the shared node delimiter and the hierarchy delimiter as they can cause unpredictable behavior.

• If you use the query wildcard characters asterisk ( * ) and underscore ( _ ) in a node name, the node cannot be easily searched for unless a derived formula is used to search for them using the Pos function.
