Does anyone have any recommended advice / best practice regarding the naming of controls. I understand that hungarian notation is now dead.

I have had a good look around the internet and advice seems to differ depending on which site I visit. The top search result, here they recommend prefixes as per hungarian notation but with an initial capital.

Elsewhere the advice has been to prefix with "c" and suffix an identifier or just use a suffix. MSDN does not provide any advice as far as I can see for naming controls, there is advice on other naming conventions.

Although the majority of my code is unlikely to be seen by anyone other than myself, should I post further on this forum it would be better if forum members could understand the code through a consistent naming convention.

I don't think its is just me either. Reading posts, it seems beginners just use the naming style of the snippet they have copied or just assume still that hungarian notation is the correct way.

Thanks.:unsure:
