How do you tell the difference between poisonous berries and good to eat berries in the woods?

Poisonous poke berries grow in water and Elderberries grow on land. Both of them are not really safe to eat.
Comment from Asker: Poke Berries grow on land from what I have seen in Dallas, Texas. I found a plant growing behind an unattached garage. It had ripe purple berries on it. I almost ate them, but tried them out on a squirrel first, who sniffed and then walked away. I saw a picture on the internet of a pokeberry and it appears that the berries grow more in rows than clusters as is seen in elderberries.

I suppose that depends on the type of berry. Most red berries that you find growing in the woods are poisonous, and their bright color displays this fact.
