Thanks for the reminder. My ntp server seems to have died.

John,
There are an almost infinite number of applications and operations that a
person can think of regarding the use of dates and times.
My employer's applications on that particular server were specific and
well defined. I'm not going to go into all the details of the requirement;
there were
I didn't mean to nitpick, but my experience has been that date and time
processing is a blind spot. Over the years we have come across the most
unholy kludges and nasty errors as people try to process dates without
using the core theory. The Y2K situation was just one of the side
effects in

John,
None of the functionalities you mentioned were requirements on the project
I worked on.
Clumsy? My approach simplified everything on that server and is in
production worldwide, and unmodified, today.

Terms like "foreign" and "federated" conjure up images of physical
tables that reside in external databases, which is not at all what
this feature is. It's simply an interface that looks like a table.

I would like a virtual table cursor to distinguish read-only access

For UPDATE / DELETE, I want to lock *my* rows in xNext cursor operation.
Is there a way to distinguish or is this a dumb question?

I have a highly threaded application that writes to a number of database
files. Each thread opens a database file, uses its own handle, and then
closes that handle when finished. As the threads come and go, some will
likely overlap with others using the same database, so it seems like the
Hi Gerry,
I would suggest either [scan] or [regexp] , with the former probably
being easier.
I'd love to use RegExp, but SQLite doesn't include it in its standard
functions (though I wish it did for so many reasons). I'm not familiar
with scan.

I like the term virtual 'cause that's exactly what they are.. a table that
does not really exist in the db and is provided by some other system. This
is not inconsistent with other DBMS's which use terms like "virtualized

I have some imported data that includes a date column in the format d/

d = day as 1 or two digits
m = month as 1 or two digits
yy = year as two digits
