Giving Dimensions Symbol Names

I have a dimension that I want to rename to "G". However, ProE will not let me. Whenenver I try to do this I get the following message:

"This symbol is reserved or exists already."

I have looked into my relation and parameter files, and I can't find a "G" dimension. This happens on new parts and on existing parts. I can't seem to figure out how and/or where ProE is using "G".

Do you have any ideas on why I can't use "G"? Is this symbol used internally within the ProE program somehow? Is there another place I can look besides the relation and parameter files that could possibily tell me where the symbol "G" is used?

Thanks in advance for your help.
