Perhaps my changing naming conventions >was just an evidence of taking the general advice to heart. This was kind of where I was coming from with my question. I much prefer StudlyCaps and have used them for ages. It seemed that a lot of folks used the wimpy_underbar in their work.

But when AndyHimself said that he preferred StudlyCaps ... well, that did it for me. ;-> Ronald E Jeffries http://www.XProgramming.com http://www.objectmentor.com I'm giving the best advice I have.
