If I'm building a schedule like log that contains lots of input
fields...is it better to enable the viewstate?

It's about 50 fields. Will enabling viewstate allow me to not hit the
DB again on POSTBACK?

yup, but your page will be heavy because of all these controls that need to
maintain state. Test between the two approaches to see what works out better
for you.
