You should use connection pooling when you create the connection (creating is the slow bit) and close the connection after each write. This will put the connection into the pool and the next write operation will retrieve and use the same connection.
You could also put all the filenames into a table and bulkcopy them into the database.

Agreed with Mycroft.
By default connection pooling should be enabled, unless specified otherwise.
Any suggestions, ideas, or 'constructive criticism' are always welcome.

The answer Mycroft Holmes gave is a good and correct way to go.
The only reason I see to keep the connection open in the program is if you have transactional needs over separate writes. For example: if you need a logic where every record is written succesfully to the database or no records at all (commit point is after all separate writes).
The need to optimize rises from a bad design.

Yeah, what they said.
I definitely wouldn't open the connection any sooner than necessary, but I also wouldn't close it any sooner either.
I prefer to get all the data collected and ready to go, then open, process all the stuff, and close.
If holding all the data in memory at once isn't an option, then opening and closing for each may be a good idea.

Not without further information. As it stands it tells us nothing about your problem.

i have 2 column in sqlserver that their type is datetime. i want formula column b and thats formula be this: column a - 48hours = column b
i dont know how should i do this?

Ok I assume you have a history of Access development. SQL Server does not support these columns.
There is not requirements to store the column, you have a number of choices, create a view on the table and add the cacled col or calc the data when you store the information if you require to store it.

Add a computed column like:
ALTER TABLE WhatEverTableName ADD ColumnB AS (ColumnA-2);
If you want to store the result in the database (not mandatory) add PERSISTED keyword.

I hav a table emp in which 3 records contain same data...means im not using any primary constraint soooo in all the 3 rows the data is same.
My question is how to delete the other 2 rows from the table and will it be applicable if the case is like......
i hav duplicate rows for 2 different different records
|
|
|
|
|
You need to do it in steps.
select * into allrecs from table1 where 1 = 2 -- create any empty table
insert in to allrecs select * from table1 -- copy all your current data
truncate table table1 -- clear your table
insert into table1 select dustinct * from allrecs -- now you just have unqiue records in your table
drop table allrecs
You may wnt to keep the allrecs table until you are satisfied you have not lost anything that you wanted.
Hope this helps

Not that I know of - unless you export the data to a file and read it back in.

Why? I wouldn't expect 1 line answers.

I'm guessing that you're using Oracle (based on the table name).
If that's true and all the rows are identical, you can use rowid in delete statement. For example, if you want to leave the 'first' row, the statement could be:
DELETE FROM Emp
WHERE ROWID > (SELECT MIN(ROWID)
FROM Emp);
Correction: As Ashfield pointed out, I misunderstood the question. The statement above will delete all the records except one (for some reason I understood that all are duplicates).
If the table has both duplicate and non-duplicate rows, you can use correlated condition. The condition would be something like the following (all the fields from Emp must be included in correlation):
DELETE FROM Emp a
WHERE a.ROWID > (SELECT MIN(b.ROWID)
FROM Emp b
WHERE a.Field1 = b.Field1
AND a.Field2 = b.Field2...);
Sorry for the confusion,
Mika

Mika, its not often I question your expertise, but won't this delete everything except the very first record in the table? Or am I missing a trick with Oracle (it is along time since I used it)

My 2 pesos.
Generally, you wouldn't want to do this, because of what your stating. There would typically be a mix match of good and duplicated records. (hence your post would be best suited in this scenario).
The original question stated that the table in question has 3 rows which all contain the exact same value without a primary key and to delete the duplicated rows; meaning only to keep 1 row - so Mika's answer is a little more concise and gets the job done.
Splitting hairs though...
Any suggestions, ideas, or 'constructive criticism' are always welcome.

You're absolutely correct. Everything is deleted except 1 row. It may be that I've misunderstood the question!!!
Thanks very much for the correction, I really appreciate it! I'll modify the original answer (and perhaps learn to read  ).

It's not often I doubt your answer, it just didn't seem right - the new one is what I expected. It happens to us all from time to time - hopefully just after a backup

 Just did a full restore and created a FLASHBACK TABLE[^]... just in case. To fully correct the situation, I think that a personal reboot is required.

Friends
this is my first time in terms of designing a Distributed Database system software (A distributed POS). There are certain types of things I have to consider like Security most important, reliability, light in terms of resource etc..
Now It would be very help full if some one tell me how should I ensure top most security (Hack proof) designing this thing.

Thanks for all your help. have another question.
I have a database name star. My star database have 4 tables contact, units invoices and payments
in my contact table I have columns contact id Fname, LName, Address, City, State, zip, email.
in the invoice table I have columns invoice id, contact id, startdate, enddate, subtotal, total,
I wrote a little app from the help from here to migrate my data because SSIS 2005 was having problems with null value data in the contact table import perfectly and invoice imports as well but in but my contact id in the Contact table is not matching the contact id in the invoice table.
if I can get the a sample of some code in sql I can do it in c#

It is called referential integrity and is a fundamental of database design, you need to understand it before you will be able to progress with this. You need to understand the use of foreign keys and identity fields.

If you want to update existing records, use UPDATE[^] statement, not INSERT.
