Will declaring the column as VARCHAR not achieve the same thing? Does SQLITE not translate VARCHAR to TEXT, rather than numeric? -ken On 21-Jun-05, at 5:10 AM, D.

[sqlite] Manifest Typing question
Hello, When I add text to the database, it's getting truncated because SQLite is converting it to a number. For example, I enter "9.0", but SQLite stores it as "9". Is there a way to force the value to be inserted as string? Thanks, -- Tito
