>>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

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.
