I'm sorry, the example given was just the current one I was using to test the fix. In general I found the application was quoting all Numbers and I was WRONG about the meta data stored in the db file. It seems in almost all cases Sqlite is doing a very good job of storing meta data I think. Too clarify my application is coded in Java and is using a JDBC. The example belows indicates that even when a mistake is made for instance in declaring a type of TINYIN, the SQL type stored or derived from the JDBC for the meta data is, 4, INTEGER. Good guess! CREATE TABLE exnumeric( weight TINYNT NOT NULL, speed DOUBLE); Name Java Class SQLType SQL Type Name weight java.lang.Object 4 TINYNT speed java.lang.Object 8 DOUBLE In general if a table type is declared outside the defined SQL types it still, for example (weight, kilograms), is defined as TEXT it seems. The issue I was having had to do with keying off only the Java Class which in all cases is java.lang.Object. Most other databases return for example the speed column, as java.lang.Double from a Java ResultSetMetaData. danap. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
