ok, Denis I have fixed the bug and uploaded the new version of sqlite3Explorer. thanks for pointing it out. BTW, I have some comments on your database sample: 1. the bug was triggered by the definition of foreign keys. you use the syntax: create table x( device_id integer references Device it would be more appropriate to do this: create table x( device_id integer references Device(Device_ID) this gives more complete information for the schema. also, I noticed that you use mixed semantics in your column typing: Integer Integer(5) Varchar varchar(32) If you plan to use the strong typing of SqliteExplorer, you should be more consistent, and use : integer varchar(32) what is the meaning of varchar without a size ? did you mean a text blob ? if so, use the definition CLOB, which will give your column text affinity, which is something you want in order to avoid unnecessary attempts to convert to numeric values. true, the "varchar" definition also gives you TEXT affinity, but, since there IS a "preferred" type to declare text blobs, (CLOB), why not use it ? Sqlite3Explorer will recognize it, and give you a multi-line editor to edit/display this field.
