Morning List,

Another morning another question, what sort of facilities does SQLite
provide for Loading from a read only storage location and then saving
changes to a separate read/write storage unit?  I know I can open a
database file with a read only flag but how would I go about managing
the changes to that database and storing them to a separate storage
device?  All I could think of is creating a separate read/write database
on the read/write storage but short of duplicating tables between the
two databases I can't think of a simple mechanism for organising the two
tables so only the changes to the original read only table are stored
out into the read/write table with out adding allot of data management
logic on the code side.

I'd imagine there is some mechanism for dealing with this kind of
storage layout if SQLite is used in embedded systems as the sort of
storage arrangement I'm describing is fairly common but I'm unsure as to
the terms to search in the documentation for as every product seems to
use different terms for that sort of facility.  Any help or pointers to
the correct bit of documentation to look at would be most appreciated!

Cheers,
