Well - you might be able to accept that, but I'm not sure I can! If it was working before, it must be compiled in, and so it must be possible to make it work again. http://www.sqlite.org/foreignkeys.html#fk_enable seems to suggest that "PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON" never returns anything, and it's only "PRAGMA foreign_keys" which returns 0, 1 or None (when unsupported). With that in mind, does the following code work? # open database file self.geologger_db = sqlite3.connect('geologger.mgc') self.db_cursor = self.geologger_db.cursor() self.db_cursor.execute("PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON") self.db_cursor.execute("PRAGMA foreign_keys") print self.db_cursor.fetchone() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
