    Microsofts recommendations change with time. For example, they no longer recommend hungarian notation. I would say, whatever team you are on should discuss coding standards together, and come up with a document that all can accept. Having *a* standard is more important than what that standard is, assuming of course that no obviously dumb things come into it. It doesn't matter if your member variables start with m_, it does matter that whatever standard you use, you can tell that a variable is a member by looking at it in the code.
