requirefieldvalidate control for all text boxes

Just curious, why? AjaxControlToolkit.dll is a single library that is to be deployed with your web solution. You use only the feature that you want.

If you had to perform one single stored procedure call in your website project, would you write the code yourself or add a reference to the DAAB and use SqlHelper just to avoid writing 3 lines of code?

Both will work, one is overkill.
