Re: [sqlite] Re: *** Please help ***
Thank you for that Miguel, but this is not good. DRH, if we don't get the type information returned for Views, what is the point of getting it back for SELECTs? Views are completely useless to SQLite users who rely on the type information to interpret the result sets. Is this something you can fix soon?

I have the following fairly basic SQL View that works fine with Sqlite 2.x: CREATE VIEW Invoices AS SELECT Customers.CustomerID, Customers.CompanyName,Orders.OrderID, OrderDetails.ProductID, OrderDetails.Quantity FROM Customers INNER JOIN Orders ON Customers.CustomerID = Orders.CustomerID INNER JOIN OrderDetails ON Orders.OrderID = OrderDetails.OrderID When I create and run this view in 3.x, I get all of the rows back, but all values are NULL! If I run the SELECT statement apart from the view, it I get the data back fine. But if I select * FROM Invoices, I get all of the rows back, but all values are NULL. Another interesting thing is that when selecting from the View, the column names are without the table prefix. That is, CustomerID, CompanyName, OrderID, et. But if I select from the tables directly, the column names have the table prefix, Customers.CustomerID, Customers.CompanyName, Orders.OrderID I have put the database up on my website here (Zip file): www.eztools-software.com/downloads/northwind.zip This is happening in all version 3.0.5-3.0.7. Can someone please download this DB and investigate. If you want to test the same view and data with a v2.x database, you can get the SqlitePlus28 download from here: www.eztools-software.com/downloads/sqliteplus.exe TIA -Brett Goodman
