The other thing you should do is check the exit status of sqlite3. if not 0 then an error occurred.
Plus parse the output to see if you get any errors -- in specific handle the errors you know about and show errors that need a handler. So for BUSY and LOCKED you may loop for a while retrying it. Again..don't know how applescript does this. Michael D.
