Database connection lost

[Naseer]

Hi All
I am building an application using web services for database manipulation.Wh en i call functions of webservice it always makes database connection and makes a new one.
example:

if obj is object of webservice.

obj.Method1();
obj.Method2();
it loses the connection made in first method call and i have to make a new connection in second call.
how can i maintain database connection.

Do you have a common connection object (i.e. SqlConnection)?
