It shows *a* difference, my prefixes identify the basic type of a component
or control, I do not use it for other variables. I.e. I clearly have the
*purpose* of identifying the basic nature of the control - an edit, a
listbox, a button, etc. And again, it is *no different* then you placing
"Button" at then end of your button names or "ListBox" at thend of listbox
names. Explain to me how that is different *in nature*.
