Right now, files can only use numbers and letters.  There is no way to use any other normally used typing characters such as: $ & -.  You're also not allowed to use any punctuation marks.  All of these characters can be used in creating a file in Dropbox.  There is nothing "special" about these characters, just Skyslope won't let me use them.  If I have a client named D'Souza, I can't properly create the file, because the apostrophe doesn't work.  I want to create a "working file" in Skyslope that is based on the client's name while we are looking at houses.  Until we find a house, we don't have an address associated with the client, so I have to create a different file, then move it once we have a house to associate with the client. These are clients.  They're aren't houses who are getting new owners.

I agree. We should also be able to use the #  or / signs when entering a client's address. Not the file address but their actual mailing or forwarding address.  I have come across an address where it is 406 1/2 S anywhere St and I am not able to indicate the 1/2 in the address.  This is a proper address recognized by USPS but I am not able to enter it correctly in SkySlope.
