Mike, other than the width others have noted, the document seems to be displaying OK for me in IE5. As a newcomer to both SQL and SQLite, but not as a newcomer to programming in general, the ABSOLUTE BEST single thing to have in documentation is EXAMPLES, EXAMPLES AND MORE EXAMPLES. Thanks for putting this up. Did I mention that examples are a good thing?
