We have a txt naming dev here at the coalface. So I am plagued with method names like AddChild2Parent and KeepUp2Date Jeez! it's one flaming character you're saving yourself! it drives me 2 distraction!

Just change the method's name, VS will refactor the code for ya, problem solved! :-D It's a much more difficult problem with ginormous spaghetti code... :((
A train station is where the train stops. A bus station is where the bus stops. On my desk, I have a work station.... _________________________________________________________ My programs never have bugs, they just develop random features.

Yes, the more recent versions of VS will do that for you... :|

This kind of relates to the problem above. I also have this problem where a function can be as long as 1000 lines, perhaps more. Everything is so complicatedly intertwined that intellisence has long given up and a normal text search and a seasoned programmer's haunch are the only way to navigate through the mess... :~
Almost, but not quite, entirely unlike... me...

Your response forced me to look up the word 'ginormous' I was disappointed with the result as I was expecting something really different. Never heard this word before. Learn something new every day, even if it isn't ginormous or elephantine, at least it is something.

The earliest versions of VB would do that for you, which shows that, far from being a defunct, horrible language, VB was actually ahead of its time, and all the programs that our children write will be written in VB. JSOP will be so happy and proud when his favourite language finally receives the recognition it deserves.

If that's the worst problem you have I envy you.
People say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

It's a "fusion" (since that's the in word) of gigantic and enormous, and therefore a calculated and appropriate use of poor English for this thread, innit?

Thanks Mark for the clarification. One would think that, someone with my intelligence, would have realised this immediately. I misread it and my brain mispronouced it and I got excited about a new word. I do like fusion words though. Your clarification has cleared the whole issue. ...and made me feel a bit dumb Thanks

Guys, there is a proper name for 'fusion words'. Ginormous is a portmanteau.

We've got people who insist on prefixing everything with the first letter of the company we work for, "so that we know what is ours and what isn't". Namespaces are not enough it seems.
Take advantage of it, e.g. if your company name starts with "W", use a lot of anchors.
