Hello, re-visiting this, thanks for the previous help, just a question on timing. Do the commands execute in order, that is, does the .read finish before the .output / .dump starts. It's a timing issue where the programme is waiting on the creation of the dump as a signal to finish, but the .read could take maybe 10 seconds or more.
.read UnPop.sql .output C:\done.txt .dump dbinfo .quit mtia Mark _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
