Short form VB names?

-----------------------------------

Okay well the topic name isnt really that descriptive, cause I didnt know how to word it. Anyways, Im wondering if anybody knows of a site that lists all the shortforms for different things like command buttons, etc etc

example:

cmd = command button
txt = text box
str = string
chk = check box
etc etc etc

Well, those short forms are pretty irrevelent about how the program works. As long as you can read them, it's fine. The commonly used one are:

frm-Form
lbl-Label
pic-Picture box
txt-Text box
cmd-Command box
chk-Check box
opt-Option box
img-Image box
cdg-Command dialogue
lin-Line
shp-Shape

That's about all you need for most programs. I would just make up the abbreviations for those other odd components that you'll use once or twice in a life time.
