Spaces can have unintended consequences. For example, you can have spaces in
the top row cells of a spreadsheet; for example, "Full Name". But if you
attempt to query the spreadsheet programatically with ODBC and the top rows
are column headers, the space can cause problems. Underscores make a good
substitute for spaces in a case like this ("Full_Name"). Admittedly, this
example is a little obscure for most users, but I tend to avoid spaces
anywhere where programming might be involved.
