RE: where to close statement ?

I wrap the closes within the finally() block because of this:

try {
... code ...
} catch(SQLException e) {
... handle exception here ...
} finally {
try {
if(rs!=null) rs.close();
if(st!=null) st.close();
} catch(SQLException e1) {}
}

The problem with that is that close() itself can throw a SQLException so
you have to wrap it twice.
