Hi Kevin, You could also query the table or view but don't return any rows. If you set the option to get the column types in the resultset this should do what you want . AN example of what I am trying to say would help :)
PRAGMA show_datatypes = ON; select COl3 from tablename where 0 = 1 Then in the array that is returned you should have the column type as used when the table was created. This may save you the trouble of working through the SQLtext. The where statement should result in no CPU time used for the query regards Greg O ----- Original Message ----- From: Kevin Waterson To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 20, 2003 10:59 AM Subject: Re: [sqlite] AUTO INCREMENT This one time, at band camp, "Ian VanDerPoel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > You can find the info you want in the sqlite_master > table. There is some doco on it at the sqlite.org the website. I am not sure if the info is held anywhere else but > select * from sqlite_master where name = quotes; will return the sql used to build the table. you can parse the data type from that. yep, guess I will just write up a getFieldType function Thanks for your time.
