I wouldn't. Multiple INSERT statement seems to be better suited for large scale dump/restore, or even for manual entry, but without binding. Essentially, if I had my druthers, I would support whatever Pg supports and be done with it. For most part SQLite seems to follow "good for Pg good for the gander" philosophy. > Given a statement like > >> INSERT INTO table(digit,dialpadstr) VALUES >> (2,'abc'),(3,'def'),(4,'ghi'),(5,'jkl'),(6,'mno'),(7,'pqrs'),(8,'tuv'),(9,'wxyz'); > > would you expect 16 binding values ? > > Simon. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
