Is it possible to edit te pre- and suffix- that the ide provides.

Example:

When i add DataSource bounded controles

And the field in the sql table is called ContactNumber the ide names a textbox controle I drag and drop on to the form.

Then this textbox controle is named "ContactNumberTextbox" with a text property of "Contact Number:".

Because the naming convention we use is "txtContactNumber"

It would be great if the ide does this for me.

If anybody could help me with this i would be very happy

The current naming convention for Microsoft languages is to have the name of the control first with the control class second so instead of:
'txtContactNumber' it's: 'contactNumberTextbox'

Because 'contactNumberTextbox' is much more descriptive in letting the programmer know what each control is, doing things this way 'contactNumberTextbox' means that there are no control name conflicts too. It would be wise to attempt to have the naming convention used by you (and your company) changed to the new standard
