    It looks like an interface because uppercase I is followed by another uppercase letter. Why not spell it out, like InteracxXmlContainer. Too long?

    To follow up with a good reason why its too long, is that these are subclassed controls and in the form designer's tool box, I really don't want "Interacx" to swallow up the control name, especially for controls like "Date" and "Time", which are half of the word "Interacx". So I opted for "IX" to improve the readability of the form designer's toolbox. Of course, I could have figured out how to strip off the header. Hmmmm.... Marc

      I actually don't like the flavor of jalapeno. Jalapeno has a sickening sweet taste with only mild heat. Give me more punch in flavor and heat. How about Kona Habanero blend? or maybe Ares Launch Exaust coffee (with Naga extract)?

        Like Interacx. The problem is, if I create a class like IXFoobaz, it looks like an interface, what with that leading I. And then if the last letter is and X and you abbreviate like I did above, then a class (which I actually have) called IXXmlContainer just starts to look gawdawful and confusing. Especially since the class implements IXmlContainer, which is, you guessed it, an interface. :sigh: Marc

            As long as you are consistent it doesn't matter at all what you call it. Start them all with MC for all the difference it makes.

                yup, see that tiny rocket at the top? We've got the test contract locally. They will be testing the escape system here even to the point of not only simulating, but also executing a full scale destructive failure and attempting an escape just ahead of the explosion. We're talking live action, edge of the seat, Die hard 2 ejection seat ahead of the explosion, fun... unmanned of course with a dozen or more cameras whirring on at extreme high speed taking in all the detail. I can't wait... :-D oh... and I googled this[^] :laugh: :laugh:

                                    Like Interacx. The problem is, if I create a class like IXFoobaz, it looks like an interface, what with that leading I. And then if the last letter is and X and you abbreviate like I did above, then a class (which I actually have) called IXXmlContainer just starts to look gawdawful and confusing. Especially since the class implements IXmlContainer, which is, you guessed it, an interface. :sigh: Marc

                                    Try to avoid the "I", use other characters combination such as "ntx" in your case. Actually, XML would be named EML if they insist on using the first char only.

                                      Ummm - isn't that what namespaces are for, rather than using a product specific prefix? Then you could have Interacx::Foobaz...

                                        Surely your interfaces would be prefixed II then?

                                          Indeed it is. But in this case, the classes in question are controls and I want to differentiate them from the .NET controls. Like how Infragistics prefixes its controls with "Ultra", I'm prefixing my controls with "IX". Marc
