Issue
EcoStruxure Building Operation allows using a period embedded in the name of an object (i.e My.AnalogValue) and the name of a binding variable in the Script program cannot contain a period.
In the Script program all the periods in the binding variable names have to be changed to a different character such as the underscore (_).
This in turn causes a problem for a programmer that has created many objects using the period in the names as it is now NOT possible to use the default name matching binding template.

Environment
- Script Programs
- Enterprise Server
- Automation Server
Cause
Script programs do not allow a period '.' in binding variable names because the period has special functionality in the Script compiler.
Resolution
Create a new path matching binding template or edit an existing one to map the underscore to the period.
Here is a second example:
Name of point/value contains embedded '.' as well as spaces
This is what the binding variable would look like in the Script program
and here is the Path Matching Template
