Here is a sample of having separate classes, one purely as a Model, one as a business class and one as a data access class. Remember that the actual data access is done by yet one another separate data access class. Sample is for "view only". You will not be able to compile it. Hope it helps!

Of course, I understand the rationale of having class. In fact, it is surprising that you didn't built it even before! The question is "Whare exactly are you stuck?" If i am writing class for customer either my form or my table "automatically" tell me the members i need, isn't it? So what is the problem going ahead just start creating a class you need? You can always keep on adding properties / methods, etc. as you go on developing. Right? So precisely where are you stuck? Is what I am interested in knowing so that we can answer you correctly.

Nitin Sontakke , Thank For Posting , Actually I Do Have Controls On The Form, But I Want To Have Class , So That When Form Loads It Must Call That Class Functions To Display Database Data In The ListView , The Point Of Having This Class Is That I can Use This Class ThroughOut My Application Whenever I Want To Display Data From The Database , Thank You , I hope This Explains Why I Am Building A Class .

Not sure what the question is. You already have a form. You must already have input controls on the form. So your class members are all input controls on your form.
