using special characters in custom field values descriptions OK?

[anovak]

Any issues using special characters in custom field value descriptions
such as "&" or "/" to help shorten descriptions for organizational
type multi-node fields?

I knew there was some issues with using special characters in OLAP
cube names, resource names, etc.

Thanks,

Hi Andy
I believe you can use "&", but I would not if you can avoid it. As you
mentioned, the OLAP cube may not like it. My slogan-----Better save then
sorry

Well, I was thinking that the CODE itself was more sensitive to
special characters than the description. I didn't figure the
description would be in the CUBE - just the code.
