In EF I can identify collections, array of a table, and post as many lines as I want to it per table. When all the data is put together you just oEntity.SaveData() and all the tables get written. If you control the guid like identifiers it is easy as pie to do this and save a lot of time for doing data loading or test data loading. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Analyst Ring Container Technology Oakland TN 901.246-0159 cell --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/cajidmyjas3_n_+7puk2nfrpyhkuxdurnz54sunsdoqqkl+g...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
