Hi - I ran across a php script where the data file was created in /tmp, so I tried that, and it works! I found some errors in my insert command, basically they were differences in insert as opposed to reading a tab-delimited file as I was doing in sqlite3. For example, two commas are interpreted as a NULL when reading, but NULLs have to be explicitly entered in the insert command. Also, strings have to be quoted. Anyway, I am now at the stage where its just a matter of learning PHP, because all the system stuff is working. This I can do. Thanks Simon, for your help on this.
