Typing Special Characters in Expressions
You enter most of the special characters in an expression just as you would enter them when creating the variable name. However, for four of the special characters (the backslash, slash mark, percent symbol, and quotation marks), you need to use a combination of keys. The following table identifies the special characters for variable names and any key sequences that you need to use to enter a variable name with that character in an expression.
Character
Character Name
Special Sequence
\
backslash
\\
[
opening bracket
]
closing bracket
(
opening parenthesis
)
closing parenthesis
%
percent
\%
"
quotation marks
\"
/
slash mark (forward)
/\
Note:  
When you use variable names with special characters in expressions or filters, you must enclose the variable name in " " (quotation marks).
