No I mean the name you see when you open the params. I was doing stuff like 
this

MyParam = Param( " % MyName ( ^ ) ", ....

It was a weird little system I had, each character meant something to me and 
when I saw them in the param window I knew what they meant.  I thought since 
it was a literal string I could name it anything I wanted but when AB went 
to save those names there was some character or character combo that caused 
it to abort the save before it finished.  I never did find out exactly which 
one, I just removed all the oddball characters from all the names and it has 
worked fine ever since.
