Question on classes

[Keon]

I am trying to write a class, but I got stuck.

When writing a class, how can you call a recursive function that is also in
the class
file, but without having to create a new instance of the class before you
call it.
// This is my class file

using System.Data;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace Misc_Utils
{
class InitializeMyDB
{
public void PrepareConnections(........)
{

// prepare the variables here

foreach (......)
{
StoreDB(....);
}
}
}

class StoreIntoToDB
{
public void StoreDB(....)
{

// do my processing here

foreach (......)
{
StoreDB(....);
}
}
}
}

Am I stuck with just having to create a new instance of the
StoreInfoToDB.StoreDB()
everytime I need to make a call to that function?
Or is there a way to encapsulate the two functions and make it one class?
TIA

I'm not certain as to what you are attempting, but it could be that you
have a misunderstanding as to how to use classes.

I think that what you want is something like

public class DB
{
// define variables etc

public bool Initialize ()
{
// init stuff - setup connection vars etc

return true;
}

public bool Store ()
{
// Store stuff - using your connection vars
return true;
}
}

Then somewhere, for each DB

DB db = new DB ();

db.Initialize ();
db.Store ();
