Conventions Used On This Site

The articles and other items on this site follow a few conventions, to make it easy to distinguish between the various types of information, like text, screen elements, code and so.

Menu items and sub menu items are separated by a |, so File | Import | Tabular Data refers to a menu item called Tabular Data that is a sub item of the Import menu, which in turn is located on the File menu.
Screen elements, like buttons, labels, text boxes, etc. are presented in this font.
Filenames are displayed like this: CreateNewUser.asp.
Database objects, like table, columns etc are shown in this font: Users.
Important words or new concepts are displayed in a Bold font.
Code that appears in the text, like HitCounter = HitCounter + 1 is displayed in a mono-spaced font.
New or important bits of code are displayed like this:

If (Instr(1, "Administrators", UserRole)) Then
' User is allowed to enter
Else
' User is denied access
End If

Code you have already seen or that is less important, is presented like this:

If (Instr(1, "Administrators", UserRole)) Then
' User is allowed to enter

These styles can also be mixed, so it's easier to focus on the important parts of a larger code block:

MM_tableValues = MM_tableValues & MM_columns(MM_i)
MM_dbValues = MM_dbValues & MM_formVal
Next

MM_tableValues = MM_tableValues & ", AccessLevel"
MM_dbValues = MM_dbValues & ", 'Members'"

MM_editQuery = "insert into " & MM_editTable & " (" & _
MM_tableValues & ") values (" & MM_dbValues & ")"
If (Not MM_abortEdit) Then
' execute the insert
