Well, this is what i learned from the coding style within our engineering groups: use a V_ prefix to name the VALUE of a given bit use a M_ prefix to name the MASK of a given bit i.e. V_Latch = 6 M_Latch = (1<<V_Latch) To use this convention, you only have to remember the V_/M_ stuff and where to use what, then simply append your symbol name. -- Thilo
