Using AIX 5.2. Scripting in #!\bin\sh.

Ok - Just to clarify what i am trying to do. I am trying to get the creation of the file to be as efficient as possible. Or there may be another way of achieving my objective without creating a file. Explained below....

The first part of the file variable written to the file should read:

Code:
echo $firstline > newfile.xml

The $firstline, $secondline variable are actually XML tags with information in.
The $thirdline contains an Insert statement to a database
<Insertquery>Insert into newtable<Insertquery>
The $forthline contains the values to enter into the table
<values>'one', '2012-03-23 $INCREMENT', 'message'<values>

I am trying to update a database table which can only be updated through the use of an xml file with all the various tags in and the correct format.

The newfile.xml is the file that is used as the template which updates the database. However, the second value to be entered in the database need to be a unique value. This is why i have added the $INCREMENT in the values.

A java call is made and it used the XML file to insert into a database the values. I need to insert 1000 records however, i think the creation of the file is making it slow at the moment as it is taking 1 second per transaction.
