More for curiosity than anything, but has anyone ever created a custom field on a table, then stripped out the "u_" that the system puts in place to denote that the field was user generated?

If you could find a way to do so, I would advise against doing it. On the next upgrade, that field could get over written by mistake because it doesn't start with a 'u'.

Hi,
Is this the same case with scoped applications. We have a scoped custom application and I notice the "u_" is removed before the column name.
Could this be a problem later being that it is a scoped application created in Studio?
Or is it OK to strip the "u_" in this case?
Thanks,
Tom

Scoped apps do not use the u_ prefix but instead us their own namespace identifier.
