Quickfields, which object is invalid?

asked on December 11, 2014

When Quickfields says invalid Object name which object is it referring to? The Entry Name, The Path Name? Usually it will have a red exclamation next to the object which needs attention but in this case it doesn't, it just says that the object name is invalid.

It usually comes from Zone OCR reading multiple lines or a Pattern Matching token extracting multiple lines from full page text.

I always try to use substitution if it's available to me. I substitute out any of the characters that are not allowed in names or shouldn't be there unless I want them like an extraneous \ symbol as well as any new lines and such. If I know it should only be alphanumeric & common punctuation, I'll use something like this:

[^\w,\-&] (this gets rid of anything except a word char (which can be numbers plus the  , - & symbols.
