Problem Note 61217: An SAP HANA table fails to open from a SAS® Explorer window and returns "The table name XXXXXXX is not a valid SAS name"

(The table name 'db.bdf.dev.h.dp::V_M2_CAMPAIGNS.DATA' is not a valid SAS name. Would you like to choose a different table to display?)

options VALIDMEMNAME=EXTEND;
