Naming conventions
-
Shouldn't we say that anyone that posts code that they're actually using with naming conventions like "TextBox1" "TextBox2" "TextBox3" "Button1" should be assigned a membership type of "Moron" until they can prove they know how to properly name a control. That would give them some sort of icon like the "CP MVP" icon whenever they post something but it would simply say, "Moron" written across it.

Man, now I'm tempted to submit a Question with controls like ButtonI, TextBoxXIV, LabelVIII... Or maybe FormKappa, Label2992185773, and TextBoxTheOneOverThereWithTheThing :)
Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

Author of the Guardians Saga (Sci-Fi/Fantasy novels):thumbsup: Hey, if you used roman numerals, at least I would know you actually changed them yourself! And if you used 2992185773, maybe you're just this woman: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ladym_photojournal/2992185773/[^]! And, what's wrong with TextBoxTheOneOverThereWithTheThing? I use that every day!

It can get confusing...

- LabelOnTopOfTheOtherThing.Top

Author of the Guardians Saga (Sci-Fi/Fantasy novels)It looks perfectly consistent to me. Could I use this naming convention in my projects or it’s already copy writhed?

Copy-writhed (n): So encumbered in litigation that you writhe in pain?

The problem with that is that I do it on purpose. :-O If I have a problem, I am often not allowed to put the real code on line. I tear it down to the minimum possible set of code, forms, controls, etc, and rebuild it in a separate project with generic control names, variable names, use a different userID to log in, route through a proxy in a second country and type with an accent from a third country, in a language from a fourth country.
Opacity, the new Transparency.

Gee thanks I spend time renaming all those button names to hide them. :laugh:
