Cannot get_file/delete_file when filename contains a hashtag ("#")

[junkmail7152]

Is there a work-around for getting file contents or deleting a file when the filename has the "#" character in the name itself? Having a "#" in the name causes an error in which the file cannot be found. I tried replacing the "#" with "%23" (the html encoding reference), but I had not luck. Please help!!! TIA

I know that some SharePoint fields add the '#' character for some purpose. I can't say for certain but that's probably the issue. I'll look into figuring this out.
