Form Control applies naming conventions when an object is checked out and checked back in. Existing VSS files whose names contain the special characters are not affected. You can remove any such files manually.
The naming convention is applied for compatibility with Visual SourceSafe version 6.0d and affects Form Control versions 5.00.02 and later, 4.03.18, and 4.02.12.
