Thanks Markus,
Unfortunately libsybmapname does not get rid of the period. Also, once we
modify it, it will no longer be supported by Sybase and that is
unfortunately deemed unacceptable from an organization point of view ...
:-( (i.e. we are not allowed to have any unsupported code in-house)
Do you have any other thoughts?

Sybase provides sample code for a library called libsybmapname.so (don't
remember the exact name) somewher in the server sample directory. Modify
and
compile it and move it inot the default library directory.
