In the SQLite documentation it explicitly states ':memory:' lowercase. We don't process the filename we pass to the SQLite library, so I can't explain the difference between macOS and Windows. Looking at the sqlite sourcecode - it does a case-sensitive comparison between the filename passed and ':memory:'. So, I suggest using ':memory:' as stated by SQLite and all will be well :) Warmest Regards, Mark. -- Mark Waddingham ~ m...@livecode.com ~ http://www.livecode.com/ LiveCode: Everyone can create apps ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

You don't have to... ;) I assume you wrote :MEMORY: in capital letters, right. Write it in lower letters :memory: and it should work.

Re: :MEMORY: databases and Windows
Curiously, this works fine in a MacOS standalone. I think there may be an issue with Windows and :MEMORY: databases.

I just tested under Win in the IDE, it does not work there either.

Re: :MEMORY: databases and Windows
I get an error creating the database. I went back into my code and checked that the database id was an integer upon creation and it was not.

Re: :MEMORY: databases and Windows
Which LC version are you using? Does it work in the Windows IDE? Did it work already in the past with other LC editions? There are some things that do not work on single platforms after the big rework on the LC DB drivers in v7 in general. E.g. ODBC connection strings on macOS do not work anymore since v7, but still work on Windows. Maybe this does not work on Windows, although it works on Mac. But that is just a guess. > Am 16.03.2022 um 22:09 schrieb Bob Sneidar via use-livecode > : > > Hi all. > > I have a simple app that creates a :MEMORY: sqLite database, then populates > it with some small bit of data.
