>We are new to the framework and have a question. We are now in the process of building our tables. Does the unique ID of the table have to be IID? I noticed most of the examples and things that we looked at in class referred to it as either IID or CID. Can we name it something else other than that? For example, we have a table called Product. Could we call it IProductID instead?

Hi Brian,
This is exactly what I do & I find it especially helpful in multi-table views for a one glance clue as to what data your looking at. It's also proven invaluable for coming back to a framework app you did say a year ago... with every PK name IID or CID, not only is it sloppy but your going to spend a lot more time wrapping your brain around it to figure out which way to go to make a simple enhancement/fix.
