Hi George,

>The only place I use the mdot convention is in the command window because Intellisense kicks in.

Hmmm, in what circumstance does intellisence not kick in ??
Intellisense does work without mdot also (at least in a number of cases):

o = CreateObject("TextBox")

The only thing I see is that typing m. will give you a list of variables, to pick from.

>The only reason for naming conventions is to make the code more readable.

Absolutely. My point however, is that it has a side effect that the collision between variable and fielname becomes highly unlikely.
