The above poster should have answered your question, but since you're coming from a C background, I would like to make note that C# doesn't use pointers per se, it uses references. While similar, they aren't the same thing, and the naming scheme for C#, using PTR at the end of your variables is not necessary and slightly redundant.
Hungarian notation has been out since the invention of intellisense and it's other IDE varieties. Unless of course you're using VB.NET, where parameters and properties of the same name might need a prefix...my company uses c(Variable) for the class field, (Variable) for the property, p(Variable) for parameters, and l(Variable) for local variables of similar name.
