Thanks for the ISO reference, I'll look into it - I'm coming from a MS
Access world where those _silly_ naming conventions actually make like
easier. You need to know in vba code at a glance whether it's a
table, query, lookup table - string, int, date - global, local,
modular... whatever - or you'll drive yourself crazy in the head
trying to debug the thing. I've been wondering about appropriate
naming conventions for SQL Server - but haven't as you can tell
bothered doing my research on the subject yet
