Here's some sample code. I think it'll illustrate better than textual
explanation. It's greatly abbreviated, but all the critical pieces
are there. Note that this is totally untested code, and could well
not even compile, since I typed it directly into the webmail form
field.
user.cfc (more or less what you've got right now)
<cfcomponent displayname="user">
<cffunction name="init" access="public" output="false" returntype="void">
<cfargument name="dsn" type="string" required="true" />
<cfset variables.dsn = dsn />
<cfset variables.my.name = "" />
<cfreturn this />
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="setName" access="public" output="false" returntype="void">
<cfargument name="name" type="string" required="true" />
<cfset variables.my.name = name />
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="create" access="public" output="false" returntype="void">
<cfset var getID = "" />
<cfquery datasource="#variables.dsn#">
INSERT INTO user
(name)
VALUES
(<cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="#variables.my.name#" />
)
</cfquery>
<!--- there are usually much better ways to do this --->
<cfquery datasource="#variables.dsn#" name="getID">
SELECT MAX(userID) AS newUserID
FROM user
</cfquery>
<cfreturn getID.newUserID />
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
facade.cfc
<cfcomponent displayname="facade">
<cffunction name="init" access="remote" output="false" returntype="void">
<cfset session.activeUser = createObject("component",
"user").init(application.config.dsn) />
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="setName" access="remote" output="false" returntype="void">
<cfargument name="name" type="string" required="true" />
<cfset session.activeUser.setName(name) />
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="create" access="remote" output="false" returntype="numeric">
<cfreturn session.activeUser.create() />
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
Hope that helps shed some light on the matter, and keep asking questions.
cheers,
