I am creating a bunch of SQL tags based on the clients device names.
It appears that ‘28L67’ is invalid. I’m guessing that it is because it’s starting with a #.
What are the tag naming rules? Can they be put in the user manual please?
Can you change it so that ‘28L67’ is an allowed tag name? Please?
For the moment I’ve done something similar. However, This tags are been generated by a 3rd party application and are been accessed/updated by it as well. Having to filter all tags access means a bunch of work that I’d rather not have to do.
Why is the limitation there? If it’s an OPC standard, I can see it for OPC tags, but I’m not using OPC.
Right now tag names are restricted to starting with a character or an underscore. It was coded this way out of habit, I suppose, since we are used to this sort of naming restriction for things like database columns, programmatic variable names, etc.
I don’t think there should be any problem allowing digits as the starting character of tag name.
