[AccessD] Table naming conventions

Me. Should NEVER be used to refer to controls.  Dot . Should only refer to
properties.  Bang ! Should be used to refer to controls and objects.

On a related note, does everyone use/not use Me. when referring to a control
in code?  Any advantage other than the auto-fill to using Me.?
