As for OOP, the one design error you have is that you are asking for an action, not an object. You want to make SQL inserts, that is your purpose, and that is an action, which is solved by a statement, not by an object. There is no doer. Objects are what even your English teacher would call objects while describing a sentence. You are asking for a verb, you don't have a subject, you don't have an object. Of course you can wrap an action in a class, but that is bad design. Classes will usually have names representing nouns, methods will be verbs, properties adjectives, more or less, that's OOP for English teachers. Satyam You're wrong, partially: I am sure you could have stated that in a more courteous way.
