If ur SQL supports unique indexes (I don't know why it wouldn't) u can let it take care of the unique records problem. Decide what fields constitute a "unique record" and make that a primary key, the database won't allow those records to be duplicated. Then all u have to do is fire everything u've got into the database and let it take care of the rest.
