[Eeglablist] FW: Variable name to use is still invalid

[Deza-Lougovski, Yacila]

Dear EEGLAB mailing list,

I am a new user of EEGLAB and EEG in general.

We have an issue while importing a BIDS dataset with teaching purposes. After importing the file, There is a pop-up window from EEGLAB telling us "the variable name to use is still invalid, check chars to remove"
The windows points at the cleanvarname function, line 41. When  I  check the function, I see that the variable name shouldn't contain characters such as "-" (which is everywhere in BIDS dataset).
Is this the problem? How can I solve it?

Thanks for your attention,
