Greetings!

imagine this data content,

c1, c2, c3
a, 1, 2
b, 3, 4
c, 5, 6
a, 9, 8
a, 1, 9
c, 1, 3

I would like to get a list of all the items in c1. So, the return would be,

a,
b,
c

I know how to do it programmatically, but is there a way to get it right
from SQLite?

select distinct c1 from tablename;

Thanks.

Ok, I am going to push my luck. :-) Imagine the same data, what if I wanted to get the sum of the other two columns also? I know how to do it one at a time, so in this instance I would have to do 3 separate call using sum or total, but is there a way that I could do it on the same call and get the sum of columns c2 and c3, so that I would get something like this,

a,11,19
b,3,4
c,6,9

Yes, I know.  I am pushing my luck. :-)

thanks.

josé
