Why? Why does anybody care what the column names in the result are? What are the column names used for other than to print a header at the top of a table for human-readable output? Remember that not all wrappers are done by third parties. I ship the TCL wrapper with SQLite and for some reason I have never felt the need to turn on long_names or short_names. The default column names, whatever they might be, have generally been acceptable. So what is the difference? What are all these other wrappers doing that requires specific column names formats? -- D.
