I have never been a fan of expressing the data-type in the name of the var or function from VFP days on. lcCustomerName doesn't need c now does it? dDueDate if you need to read a d as date, why is it in the blasted name?

True. Why is the variable name not dDue?

I sometimes code using prefixes. Mine are only related to type. For example, I use "c" for count, "x" for index, and "s" for size. All of these will probably be some integer type.

Everyone makes their own style and like art it is yours.

And like art, it attracts critics.
