Splunk ODBC: Why do I receive "syntax error 'SELECT "FIAM-Monthly-Hit-Count"" error?

If I add the column, I get the following error:

`[31480] syntax error near 'SELECT "FIAM-Monthly-Hit-Count".unique<<< ???>>> from "ALL"."FIAM-Monthly-Hit-Count" "FIAM-Monthly-Hit-Count"

I'm using the Splunk ODBC drivers with Excel 2016. I'm able to use the Query Wizard to choose columns and Excel is able to get the column data from the report except this column. The one column is causing an error.

Found the problem. The name of the column was "unique". This appears to be a reserved name and the "unique" name of the column causes the error.

Changing the column name solves the problem.
