error: collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Hi whenever i inlcude a header, in this case <database.h> to one of my .cpp files i get this error, "error: collect2: ld returned 1 exit status", when i remove this header everything compiles fine. I have used this header within other .cpp files so why is it not working now? any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks for your time and trouble

database.h:44: multiple definition of `database::DConnect()'

I'd say thats the problem. You have definitions in header code rather than just declarations.
