<P>In my own stuff, I very much like the fact that a variable (etc) is easily identified and I find it helpful if not absolutely necessary. I don't, in general , trust other people to run a tight ship on that subject though, so maybe it is a tad obsolete. <BR>_D<BR><BR>"Things are only free to the extent that you don't pay for them".-Don Elliker </P></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>>Arthur,
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>I have to disagree with you about naming standards not applying to
<DIV></DIV>>Access. Check the archives to see how much bandwidth is wasted on this
<DIV></DIV>>list due to people having poorly names variables/controls/fields that
<DIV></DIV>>are either the cause of their problems or have to be clarified before
<DIV></DIV>>their problems can be answered.

<DIV></DIV>>The following excerpt comes from

<DIV></DIV>>the subject interests you, I suggest you visit there. Here is a preview:

<DIV></DIV>>This does not apply to Access, except in narrow areas like creation of
<DIV></DIV>>types or classes, but it's an interesting point nonetheless. Like many
<DIV></DIV>>other listers, I have habitually created all my variables with
<DIV></DIV>>type-prefixes. Given intellisense, this may be obsolete.
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>What do you think?
