Style/Design question

[Carlos Proal]

Hi Mark et all

Im figuring out if someone can advise me about which is the best way to 
create classes that interact with a database.
For example:
Currently I have a table "user"  which contains username, password, name, 
phone etc

and i have 2 java classes User and DB_User, the first one having only the 
attributes related to user (most of them are taken from table definition), 
and the second one receives a User object in the constructor and "fills" 
information in that User, information of course retrieved  from the db, ex. 
"getPhone()".

so i dont know if this is the best way to programm these cases or if its 
better to have only a class User that works as a normal object and also 
interacts with a database when neccesary or something like that.

Thanx a lot, and any advise is really appreciated
Carlos
