>Answer me this please. I know it is ill-advised to use reserved words as functions and variables, but what are the consequences of say creating a procedure called 'refresh' or declaring 'isreadonly' as a private variable?

The majority of the problems I've run into are with fields using SQL keywords -- they cause a SQL SELECT statement to fail with syntax errors. For example, one system I worked with had a field called DESC (short for "description"). SELECT DESC FROM TABLE gives an error because DESC is a SQL keyword (short for "descending").
