Relating to my question about the split tool here, as suggested I ask a new question: is there any place with a list of invalid characters to use in a database in ArcGIS 10?
edit: It is in relation to the error I got before which is "The name starts with an invalid character". It didn't say where beyond that.
Answer
I am guessing you are referring to "Reserved Words" and special characters. Take a look at the following links, but ultimately reserved words and reserved characters are going to be more DATABASE (shapefile, MS Access, Oracle, SQL Server, etc) dependent vs ARCGIS dependent.
ESRI KB- What characters should not be used in ArcGIS for field names and table names?
