Web Service XML Changes Return Table Field Names

[Former Member]

I am writing a Web service to return a employee information from SAP using .Net Connector. My Webservice XML changes return table column names with few escape characters. Does anyone know why this happens? and How to prevent it?

Every column name is changed: e.g. PERS_NO to PERS_--5fNO

NCo -> 2.0

RFC- > Custom Function module

RFC Return Type -> ZFPSYNC

VS.Net -> VS Studio 2003, ( C# Web service)

Here is part of XML document:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

- <ArrayOfZFPSYNC xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">

- <ZFPSYNC>

<PERS_5fNO>00100001</PERS_5fNO>

<PDS_5fEMPID>00054740</PDS_5fEMPID>

<SSN>001380261</SSN>
