Your sarcastic, condescending tone kind of gets in the way of the message, though. And here is the crux of the issue. Sqlite doesn't follow the standard for sql. The name certainly implies that it would. This doesn't make it a crappy product, but it is certainly misleading. I must admit, that after 10 years of oracle experience, I don't necessarily read all of the documentation for a new dbms I'm trying out, particularly a light weigth variety. I get in, and try things. Sometimes I get bitten, but I learn better that way. I would expect, however, for each product with 'sql' in the name, to, at least by default, adhere to the standard. And expectations are what set this conversation up. But, I don't expect that anything productive will come from the rest of this thread. Your post had the stink of zealotry all over it, and we all know what happens when a zealots favorite is questioned. Again, thanks for the info. It'll serve me well when I'm playing with sqlite later. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
