I had a very strong habit of doing that when I started with C# (from my days
with Delphi). I've been trying to "cross over" and start using the
<nameofthe thing>ControlClassName pattern: OkButton, as this is the coding
standard where I work. However, for controls, I'm finding that I like it
better when the typename comes first (as with hungarian notation). Reason:
if you pull up intellisense with this., you see all of the controls on the
form sorted by type. I kind of like that organization.
As it is, I'm sticking to our standard, even though I like hungarian names
for the controls. Because, as Red Foreman once said: "If we didn't have
laws, we'd all still be living in trees, throwing our feces at each other.".
