Period Sign in Option Caption

Hi experts
Small question:
I have an option caption for a table field, looking like that.
ENU=blue,green,red
The problem is, I need a comma (,) within the caption. Of course, on the first hand this does not work, comma is the seperator sign. Any tricks to kinda mask the comma sign?
Thanks in advance

Nope, I don't think so.Hi Slavek
Thanks a lot. Good idea, but didn't work on my side, using NAV2013 R2.
When leaving the caption editor, values look like thatENU=blue,"green, or lime",red
Did I miss something?
Indeed it does not seem to work. I have checked Dev Env only if it accepts and remembers quoted captions, assuming that if Dev Env does not complain, it should be OK in client. Apparently I was wrong.
I'd say this is a bug to be reported to MS. Tiny, but a bug.

What would be the use case for this?1

Just quote your caption:
OptionCaptionML=[ENU=blue,"green, or lime",red]

Good question: It is the requirement, to have that exact option, because the current users know that caption from somewhere else. It is not very important, but I'll give them the comma if there is an easy, non invasive way

Hi
Thanks for your input on this.
Since there seems to be no easy solution or even workaround, I'll do without the comma.
Thanks again, very appreciated.
