Can special characters, such as hyphen (-) or underscore (_), be used in a prefix or suffix to renam (NETIQKB1429)

goal
Can special characters, such as hyphen (-) or underscore (_), be used in a prefix or suffix to rename accounts during migration?

fact
Domain Migration Administrator 7.1

fix

Prior to Domain Migration Administrator, version 7.0, if you wanted to rename an account using a special character (such as - or _ ) in a prefix, you would only be able to do this using a post task ActiveScript trigger. The script would have to be a J or VB script. (The prefix box in the GUI did not accept special characters).

This enhancement is included in Domain Migration Administrator 7.0 which is now released.
