I have the following table: CREATE TABLE messages( messageID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, date TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_DATE, time TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIME, type TEXT NOT NULL, message TEXT NOT NULL );
But for some data the field message is filled with an integer. An integer takes less room as its text representation and it sorts differently also. Is there a way to store an INTEGER in a TEXT field? Not very important, more nice to have. I just created the following view: CREATE VIEW downloadCount AS SELECT date AS Date , time AS Time , CAST(message AS INTEGER) AS DownloadCount FROM messages WHERE type = 'download-count' ; -- Cecil Westerhof _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
