[AccessD] Naming Conventions

Barb,

I looked through the official list which Bryan listed (Thanks Bryan!), and
found that I use three exceptions:

1) Instead of str as the prefix for a string variable, I use stg.  Str is a
VBA key word!

2) Instead of cmd for a command button, I use but.  I need obviousness!

3) For scope variables, I capitalize the M or the G.  It's easier to see in
code.

Dan

Subject: [AccessD] Naming Conventions

Is there a "gold standard" for Access/VB naming conventions?  I've been
looking at Reddick's (1994).  

Also, I am having difficulty understanding how to use prefixes with tags ---
e.g., cls= a generic class; mcls=class defined in a module??; fmcls=???
Any suggestions on where to look for clarification?

Thanks,
Barb Ryan
