[AccessD] Moving to .Net (was Ded Moroz sends you ...)

Heenan, what you are showing is called overloading.  Same method name but
different parameters and return type.  You typically see this with the
default constructor being overloaded, for example validating the input
values.  The default constructor mearly intializes the private variables
to a default value where an overloaded method actually checks if it is
vaild and throws exceptions if needed.  Overloading can also occur using
inherited methods (from the parent or superclass).
