I'm newish to this OOP thing. Is it a good idea or waste of time to have, say, an Update_User_Profile method return TRUE or FALSE depending on weather or not the database actually got updated? Or will the Database error stop the system anyway?

It's usually a good idea in case you ever need to test against it.
