Will declaring the column as VARCHAR not achieve the same thing? Does SQLITE not translate VARCHAR to TEXT, rather than numeric?

Hello,

When I add text to the database, it's getting truncated because
SQLite is converting it to a number. For example, I enter "9.0", but
SQLite stores it as "9".

Is there a way to force the value to be inserted as string?



Make the declared datatype of the column TEXT.

Example:

    CREATE TABLE t1(a, b INTEGER, c REAL, d TEXT);
    INSERT INTO t1 VALUES(9.0,9.0,9.0,9.0);
    SELECCT * FROM t1;

Results in:

    9|9|9|9.0
