Mayhaps I'm overthinking it again,and I'll grant that perhaps part of my problem is that I'm STILL waiting for .Net to become all that much better and I keep getting lost in the stupid dots but here we go.

Is it better to
a) Create/Open/Close as DB connection everytime I need one,
b) can I just create one in the signon screen that will persist through to the DispQuestions screen, or
c) Create/Open/Close DB connection on Signon screen and then one for the DispQuestions screen.

Thanks
