>>I have been meaning to ask this question for a while. Many times I see that people use prefix "t" when identifying parameter variables. For example:
>>

>>LPARAMETERS tnMyNumber, tlMyLogicalVar, lcMyCharacter

>Interesting question. I know that t indicates parameter. I'm not sure it has a special meaning (hopefully I'm wrong), it's more like a commonly accepted convention.
My guess is that T was a letter not identifying any data type (before VFPT came up with type datetime) so they used it in order to differentiate it from a data type. But I maybe mistaken too.
