I am not aware of any microsoft specific guidelines, but in our project we are using the following rules.

the string name starts with the control name on which it appears.
For eg :
LABEL_USERNAME : Username
TABPAGE_TITLE_G ENERAL : General
CLB_ISADMIN = IsAdmin (CheckedListBox )

The guidelines can be formulated according to the requriements of the project. Hope this helps.

A lot has been said in this newsgroup regarding the "evil" set/get accessor methods. Arthur Riel, (of Vanguard Training), in his class, "Heuristis for O-O Analysis & Design", says that there is almost never an excuse for accessor methods. Personally, I do not go that far. I do feel that they serve a useful purpose (albeit in a limited manner). Personally I prefer dropping the "set" and "get" prefixes from the method names altogether. ...

With all due respect to Stan Leszynski and Greg Reddick, I'm still wondering how to name controls on forms in my Access MDB. Correct me if I'm wrong... If a textbox or other control on a form is *bound* to a table field named "FullName", then it should *not* be named "txtFullName", but rather just "FullName" - that is, the name of the textbox on a form should always be the *same as the name of the table field* it's bound to. And...

Hi, Coming from a vb6 background I am accustomed to prefixing variable names to indicate their usage. Now just beginning to try to learn database stuff I've been lurking here and working on my first database design.

I have searched around a little and have yet to find a naming convention for the string builder object. I really do not want to use "str" since this is for string objects and thus could be confusing. Also, I would like a good source on the naming conventions to be used for other objects. It seems there are tons of sights with naming conventions but none seem to contain a complete list for all the objects in .Net. Is there such a...

I'm coming from a MS Access background and so I'm very used to and comfortable with the hungarian (Leszynski et al) naming conventions. However, I'm getting started into my first SQL Server Database and really want to use the appropriate up to date standard naming convention (ISO compliant). I think I have the general idea from raking though countless conflicting sites and posts, but I'm a bit stuck on what to do regarding pk / fk naming
