To add to what Peter said, James wrote an article for ABC on Leszynski's
naming conventions that's really helpful in understanding this....I'd
recommend you read it, Pam:

I'm snowed in here and have nothing to do, so I'm having fun following
this thread and playing around in Access.

KAY...I hope you are reading this  (Kay asked me in class last nite,
what happens if you put spaces in field names and I wasn't real
sure....I just knew you shouldn't....now I see that it really comes into
play when VBA steps in...thanks Peter)

Good Morning Pam,

The advise of James La Borde in his previous post should be
followed to the "T". Of course you are one tiny step ahead since
you've already put together your first table.

To summarize Jame's post. You should always DRAW your database
design on paper before you start. That is the absolute first thing
you need to do.
