I tend to use prefixes like this only when they aren't already abbreviations for an existing object in LC. So for example, I would use the "lbl" prefix for label field names, but not the "fld" prefix since I'm already using "fld" as the object abbreviation: put fld "fldStuff" into tData -- is a bit redundant for me put fld "Stuff" into tData -- ah, that's better... :D Of course, each person has the style that works best for them, so use what you like and ditch what you don't... ;) Ken Ray Sons of Thunder Software, Inc.
