Help: object reference is required for the nonstatic field

[TdJ]

No end of reading on the net and I can not get this to compile! The error
message is:

An object reference is required for the nonstatic field, method, or property
'BusinessAreaDa taSet.BusinessA reaTableDataTab le.FindByBusine ssAreaID(int)'

Could someone explain to me what I am missing ... I wish to understand why
this isn't working
public DescListLookup( UserDataSet dataSet)
{
_enabledDisplay List = new ListItemCollect ion();
_allDisplayList = new ListItemCollect ion();

BusinessAreaDat aSet myBusinessAreaD ataSet = new
BusinessAreaDat aSet();

foreach(UserDat aSet.UserListTa bleRow row in dataSet.UserLis tTable)
{

// access the business area details for this user
BusinessAreaDat aSet.BusinessAr eaTableRow baRow =
BusinessAreaDat aSet.

BusinessAreaTab leDataTable.Fin dByBusinessArea ID(row.Business AreaID);

// add the business area details to the the list
AddItem(baRow.B usinessAreaName , baRow.BusinessA reaID,
baRow.BusinessA reaEnabledFlag) ;

}
}

public BusinessAreaTab leRow FindByBusinessA reaID(int BusinessAreaID)
{
return ((BusinessAreaT ableRow)(this.R ows.Find(new object[]
{BusinessAreaID })));
}

Hi,

Instead of

BusinessAreaTab leDataTable.Fin dByBusinessArea ID(row.Business AreaID);

it should be

myBusinessAreaD ataSet.Business AreaTable.FindB yBusinessAreaID (row.BusinessAr e
aID);

since BusinessAreaTab leDataTable is class declaration and not an instance of
it.
