Thanks for the suggestion. It did not help however.
My code is modified from the code that I found at the
following web site:
http://initd.org/tracker/pysqlite/wiki/basicintro
The difference is that the examples on the above
website use the x =raw_input =('enter a value) syntax
I tried this to and got some strange behavior, like if
I entered a value like "3333333" it would give me a
similar error message, counting out the number
individual tokens as the number of values supplied in
the error message. Only when I entered a single
character at the raw input prompt could I get it to
work.
What I am really trying to do is find a
straightforward way to update a datetime.date field of
a data base.
I will continue to search for an answer. Any help
will be appreciated.
again thanks for your response.
