>>>You guys are boring... Do not use reserved words, do not use the same procedure name, do not use form sets... no sense of adventure whatsoever!

I did first and second...

>>More items to add to the fun:
>>* Use macros whereever possible

not everywhere but used sometimes unnecessary... :)

>>* Re-use identifiers as soon as they're avaialble (no sense in wasting a perfectly good variable/procedure name)
sometimes did... :)

>>* Rather than alias name, always use workarea names
My first xbase years I didn't know what's alias names. I just used select 1, select 2 or select a and select b... :)

>>* Always shorten keywords to the shortest possible length ("to save disk space" and do demonstrate that "you're a *real* pro")
That's the funniest. I invented can use some commands shorten in my first xbase years, bu didn't know there is a four character rule. :))

>>* If you must insist on having arrays, always use parenthesis and never the square brackets, and make sure you've used same name for array as well as UDF.

I did not know square brackets keep from mix UDF and arrays until this time, thank you...
