[LON-CAPA-users] changing part name

Hello all,

I made the mistake of having an "=" symbol in a part name in a problem.
This is making trouble for evaluating grades in the spreadsheet (the
spreadsheet doesn't recognize any of the parameters).  The problem was
used in an anonymously generated, scantron-graded exam (all the grades
have already been uploaded).

I changed the part names in construction space, but am afraid to republish
because I am not sure what it will do with the uploaded scantron grades.
Even if it changes the randomized numbers in the problems, at this point
it doesn't matter (the question is closed), but does anyone know if this
will mix up whether or not the student received credit.

If it will not affect their current grade, I will make the change.

Also, are there set guidelines for what can and cannot be used in a part
name (special symbols, spaces, etc)?
