Hi Francis,

I too wondered why Hungarian Notation was being dropped in favour of 
Camel Casing for VB.NET as I agree: Hungarian Notation adds a lot of 
value. Seems that the change is largely just a recomendation by 
Microsoft, and you can of course you can do what you like.

In fact, I recently bought the book 'Practical Standards for Microsoft 
Visual Basic .NET' from Microsoft's own "Microsoft Press". On page xix 
of the introduction I was pleasantly surprised to find that the author 
acknowledged Microsoft's recomendation but still chose to continue using 
Hungarian for the same reasons it has always been used ie. clarity and 
ease of understanding.

All up, I know that everybody is recoemdning Camel Casing but I am going 
to go with Hungarian. In the end, like all naming conventions, it 
doesn't matter what you choose as long as you use it consistently.

Cheers
Brett
