Any Naming convention for defining strings in resource string table.

[sudhivns]

Hi ,

Is there any std naming convention to define string in resource string table.
Eg: in VC++ we use IDS_HELP etc..
Thanks many.!

I am not aware of any microsoft specific guidelines, but in our project we are using the following rules.

the string name starts with the control name on which it appears.
For eg :
LABEL_USERNAME : Username
TABPAGE_TITLE_G ENERAL : General
CLB_ISADMIN = IsAdmin (CheckedListBox )

The guidelines can be formulated according to the requriements of the project. Hope this helps.
