[dba-VB] C#: this.prefix

Hi Gustav,

I almost never use such prefixing - and I did use Me. a lot in VBA...

I do use full namespace prefix if needed.

Using this. prefix could disturb a lot as for C# programming is usual to
make a lot of code refactorings with moving code snippets from here to there
etc.

I do use CamelCase postfix naming convention - and it helps and works well
for me (Imagine that after almost ten years of using LNRC (and Hungarian)
naming conventions in VBA and VB6!)...

Hi all

How rigorously are you prefixing controls and variables with "this."?

Is it a good or bad coding practice to use it when not strictly needed?
Do I understand it right, that it is only needed to separate, say, a method
in the current namespace from an identically named and public method in
another namespace?

I've found, that I use it a lot - old habit from "Me." in VBA, I guess.
