  This problem can occur if the first character of a column name
  is not alphabetic and the next 7 characters are not alphabetic
  or numeric (i.e. conforms to a qualifier in a MVS data set
  name).  Duplicate names gets defined when generating the
  corresponding ISPF names for the column and its search field.
  The result is that an asterik ("*") is being displayed instead
  of the data for the column.
