Using Table prefixes

Hi all,

I can see the basic need for a table prefix in a case where you may use one mysql database for several projects at once so as to distinguish tables per project like...


Project 1

mysales_contacts
mysales_invoices
etc

and

jobs_contacts
jobs_invoices

however I was told a long time ago to use a prefix "tbl_" like tbl_Mytable but I don't really see much need for this by itself ... Am I missing something?
