Naming Convention

I've just got a new job. In this company nobody cares about naming convention. In the same procedure you can find variables with names : sFirst as string, strSecond as string, Third$, lFourth as string and so on. We have a meeting scheduled for tomorrow to discuss this and similar problems. Could anybody give me any source for the most usefull naming convention system?
Thank you.

Yuk - I hate that kind of thing. I know some people like 'str' and some like 's' but I wish they'd stick to just one throughout a program.

I suppose you could recommend the Microsoft way as detailed in the MSDN - I posted this a while back to the forum :

>>>

There's the one that comes with the MSDN disks in Visual Studio at :

msdn library\visual studio 6 documentation\visual basic documentation\using visual basic\programmers guide (all editions)\Visual Basic Coding Conventions


Or you can just jump straight to it on the web here :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/isapi/msdn...nsoverview.htm
<<<<

You can print the web version out straight away if you don't want to dig through the CD's.

I also remember seeing a couple of days ago that M$ have posted the original essay on hungarian notation at their website at http://msdn.microsoft.com - just a little bed-time reading that's sure to impress (or bore sensless) your new boss.
