In this case, I think I might have a User object, that instead of calling UsersDB.AddUser, you just say User myUser = new User(); then set the attributes of user and call myUser.Save();
To grab an instance of a User you can just give an ID in the constructor: //this would grab the User instance for the user with ID = 2 User myUser = new User(2); If you have logic that needs to see all the Users in the system, you could have a Users class, that is a collection of User objects, that you could "foreach" through, or write extensions to the collection to be able to do things specific to your object (custom sorting, etc). --b Bryan Batchelder eBusiness Consultant ConnectWise, Inc. 813-935-7100 x 425 > -----Original Message----- > From: Stephen Patten [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, May 31, 2002 5:55 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [DOTNET] Best Practice for Passing Arguments > > > Hi All, > > Just wondering if there is a better way to pass arguments > around than the way I am right now(code posted at end of > messsage).
