Thanks. So far I've worked out a solution iterating through the dataset. It's slow and the hard drive pins, but this report is only intended to be run once a year so performance isn't exactly a priority:
<code> for i in range(self.oraData2.Tables[0].Rows.Count -1): title = self.oraData2.Tables[0].Rows[i][0] bcode = self.oraData2.Tables[0].Rows[i][1] callno = str(self.oraData2.Tables[0].Rows[i][2]) stat1 = str(self.oraData2.Tables[0].Rows[i][3]) stat2 = str(self.oraData2.Tables[0].Rows[i][4]) (prep and execute SQL) </code> I'm on a bit of a timeline with this project before the end of the semester so I'll explore a more performance friendly method once our library gets underway with this version. To be honest; System.Data.SQLite wasn't working because I've no idea how to do it! :0 I kept translating code examples from VB and C# but it didn't work. I'm sure it can be done quite well, I'm just a little too green on the subject. :) - Sven > -----Original Message----- > From: Jeff Hardy [mailto:jdha...@gmail.com] > Sent: March-16-12 10:49 AM > To: Vernon Cole > Cc: Sven Thomas; ironpython-users@python.org > Subject: Re: [Ironpython-users] DataSet --> SQLite > > On Wed, Mar 14, 2012 at 3:34 PM, Vernon Cole > <vernondc...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I would suggest opening both databases in their native form, then do > > the comparison using Python code rather than a complex SQL query.
