"... but that doesn't really jibe with microsoft's naming conventions either."

That is of zero concern for me. I couldn't care less what their conventions are. Mostly because I detest what they have done with the Win32 SDK names of structures and members. I'll use what ever convention(s) I feel like using. Here's one example : they continue to use this long pointer prefixing "LP..." on things. We haven't had to deal with long pointers since the 32-bit SDK came into being. The whole large-model programming thing was horrendous and I resent being reminded of it. For this reason, I never, ever use a LP prefix for anything. For the items I access that have to use it I always make a typedef to avoid it.
"They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers! Can I get an amen?"
