Hi Bill


    Thanks so much.

    Yes, the speed is my target.


    These "bcp" APIs also works for MS SQL server 2005, right?

Hi Eric,

Your original question was how to insert data into a database table as 
quickly as possible.
You said that you'd tried individual inserts using dbcmd() and dbsqlexec(), 
which are part of the db-library API.
You should use the "bcp" api that is part of db-library. This is the quickest 
way to insert data into a database table.
The api is described here, in the Sybase documentation. FreeTDS implements 
these functions too.

http://infocenter.sybase.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.sybase.help.ocs_12.5.1.dblib/html/dblib/X40041.htm

It will require a little more programming than using dbsqlexec(), but if 
speed is your requirement, this is the way forward.

Regards,

Bill

Hi Frediano

    Thank you really.

    In my case, I have to insert the rows to table one by one.

    For the connection pooling, I got the information from the User Guide.

   http://www.freetds.org/userguide/tdspool.htm,

   The FreeTDS connection pool currently only supports TDS version 4.2.


   If FreeTDS 1.0 supports protocol 7.2 with some limitations, where can I 
find the

limitation's description, so that I can identify if it will affect my case.


  BTW, is there any sample code for connection pooling?


Thanks in advance

Eric

It's not clear if the problem is application or connections.
If you have one application that needs to insert rows into a table it's 
better to batch the inserts instead of using a query for each row.
If you have multiple process each needing to connect to database and insert a 
row then would be better to use a connection pooling. The connection pooling 
included in FreeTDS 1.0 supports protocol 7.2 with some limitations.
