Hi all, I'm new to RB, coming fromVB/Access world.

I'm currently going through the tuturial and all seems to make sense. As you can imagine I'm comparing things to VB. In VB I have gotten use to a
naming convention, you know - prefixing objects/variables with a three
letter code which references the variable or control.

Is there a document which recommends a suggested naming convention for RB
variables, controls etc.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Steve,

Good to see another Aussie using a decent programming langauge like RB :P

I think naming conventions are pretty much a user specified thing rather than language specific. Personally I do the same, prefix the three letter short of things, for edit fields I'm using edt, push buttons are btn, string is str, integer is int and so on. I go with what makes most sense to me.
