Kam, Just to elaborate, if you think about it then the default alias of the table becomes sample-p, which can be misinterpreted by a parser as being an actual expression - hence the error.
You would never call a table sample*p.dbf as this error would be an obvious misuse of the "*" character and using the "-" has exactly the same effect even though it is not as obvious.

If you change the hyphen to an underscore, everything works as expected?
