Hi, True. I will get rid of the habit of using double quotes for string literals. Thanks for information. But most of the databases support this non standard behavior.

Similarly double quotes will >be escaped by one more double quote Don't do that: it can reveal a pitfall. It's not SQL even if SQLite does its best to interpret it without issuing an error. Double quotes should be reserved to enclose database, table and column names, not string literals. SQLite also accepts square brackets as well: "My Table" is the same as [My Table]. Only use single quotes (apostrophes) for string literals. A statement like: delete from "my table" where column = "column"; is prone to disapoint you! http://www.sqlite.org/faq.html#q24 _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
