    Shoudn't this be in the C# forum?
    Anyway, it's C Sharp. If you read any book (or webpage) it should be one of the first things you'll find (Mainly because everybody has the same question).

    Question Hey a C# is a Db can get confusing...!

    Imagine youre an oboe player, and you see a C# ...Youre not gonna think, "Yeah its that Db again!" ...Nope - It would be. .." AAARGH! Not that! ...Aaargh! ...Help! ...Noooo! ..."

    Naturally I didn't feel inspired enough to read all the links for you, since I already slaved away for long hours under a blistering sun pressing the search button after typing four whole words! - Quzah
