Fitting the asp code in a page inside the asp code in a template

I'm adding code in a template which connects to the only database and also closes the connection.

Every page in the site uses the template and most of the pages in the site access the database. So I can strip out the database connection set up and closing out of each page because it will be in the template.

But the sequence has to be correct when the template is applied to the page: template code connects to database; page code uses database; template code closes database connection.

How do I make sure when I add the code to the template and update the pages that the code is in this order?

How many editable regions does your template have?

The template has two editable regions.

roger:

Then you are likely to have a problem applying that template to pages since
you must put all the page's content into a single editable region.

A better way is to spawn a new page from the template, and copy and paste
from the existing page to the new page before saving the new page over the
old one. This way you get to place material in each editable region as
desired.
