Using non standard characters with a format statement

Hello,

I am trying figure out if it is possible to use the format command with non
standard characters like ( ) /

put format("%11s %9s\n" , guess, plat(1)) into fld "myReport"

errors

if I use

put format("%11s %9s\n" , guess, plat1) into fld "myReport"

then it works.

Unfortunately I will need to include the () for the report.

Is there any way to accomplish this within the format command?

thanks,
