To determine characters that are valid in object names:

  1. Find the text file that maps the client character set to UNICODE.
    You can find the file here:
    1. Access International Character Set Support, B035-1125 at https://docs.teradata.com/.
    2. In the left pane, select Attachments to download the International_Character_Set_Text_Files zip file.
  2. In the text file, find the Unicode character to which the client character in question maps.
  3. Find the file, UOBJNEXT.txt, that lists the Unicode characters valid in object names.
    You can download the file here:
    1. Access International Character Set Support, B035-1125 at https://docs.teradata.com/.
    2. In the left pane, select Attachments to download the International_Character_Set_Text_Files zip file.
  4. If the Unicode character appears in the file that is applicable to your system, you can use the client character that maps to it in an object name.
