Hi Chris,

I think you've seen Rich Shepard's reply, and emails crossed.  

But just in case you didn't:  The sqlite date/time functions require
input dates to contain a preceeding zero for month and day-of-month
where needed to make them two digits.  E.g.,
    '2007-6-4'   bad
    '2007-06-04' good

Regarding: CREATE TABLE PIT_manatees(Manatee_Log INTEGER, Name text,
First_Capture date, Recovered date, Coast text)

Remember that SQLITE does not prevent you from putting most ANYTHING as
a data type.  E.g.,
    CREATE TABLE manatees ( myData  BIG_GREY_SLIPPERY_BEASTIES_TYPE);
Works quite fine.

Be sure to see: http://www.sqlite.org/datatype3.html

Wow, thanks. So, why does this table creation work then, and not give an
error?

CREATE TABLE PIT_manatees(Manatee_Log INTEGER, Name text, First_Capture
date, Recovered date, Coast text)
