    <p>You <em>might</em> have a truly good reason to want your code to look familiar to other programmers who have learned MFC. If so, then you <em>could</em> emulate the conventions of the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/482ck6x8(v=vs.80).aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">MFC Samples and Tutorials</a>, and do what they do...</p> <p>But MFC is a legacy library which originated very early, and times have changed. Microsoft's style guidelines now specifically say <strong>NOT</strong> to use Hungarian notation:</p> <p><a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms229042.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms229042.aspx</a></p> <p>That aside, rather than blindly following any particular document, it is probably better to evaluate each individual convention. For instance, when MFC samples make classes and have member variables, they start the name with <code>m_</code>. StackOverflow has questions about this particular idea and you can read about alternatives:</p> <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1228161/why-use-prefixes-on-member-variables-in-c-classes">Why use prefixes on member variables in C++ classes</a></p> <p>I'm more aligned with Qt's API Style Guidelines, and most of their conventions work for me:</p> <p><a href="http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qq/qq13-apis.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qq/qq13-apis.html</a></p> <p>Speaking of which, Qt is a nice C++ offering that has continued to evolve and mature. Blows MFC out of the water (completely) AND is cross-platform...</p> <p><a href="http://qt.nokia.com/products/developer-tools/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://qt.nokia.com/products/developer-tools/</a></p> <p>If you want to be locked in the Microsoft universe go for .NET and C#. That would be a step up, and you wouldn't be stuck with the MFC abandonware.</p>

    1. COThe link about hungarian notation you posted, does not talk about C++/MFC. Also, you might want to leave out your personal preferences, as it doesn't really answer the question.

    2. CO@JörgenSigvardsson You won't find canonical formal practices documents for MFC programming relevant in 2011. Microsoft never used it in their own products and barely supports it now. I cited the only place you're going to find practices to follow, and that's ancient MFC samples, so it's better to draw from modern systems. If you really feel like breaking down in depth the way that MFC samples and source code use Hungarian notation (and consider that to be *"the answer"*) then by all means post it, instead of telling me to "leave out my personal preferences" in answers on StackOverflow.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
