I don't see why the result I am expecting would be different between count or sum. I wasn't try to get the values, 1 or 2 just results in a unique difference but the counts should be different and they aren't. With sum or count, the result would only show the first column in both resulting columns, and ignore that there were actually two unique columns, due to case sensitivity in the expression, even with a unique AS label. I would think that it would at least see the AS label and use that as a reference point if we couldn't go with assuming that expressions as column headers are case sensitive. This seems to be a bug. Is there a way to submit this as a bug somewhere or is this the proper way for me to raise this to someone's attention that would be interested in fixing this? Apologies for not understanding the bug submission process better. -Bjorn -- NOTICE: Morgan Stanley is not acting as a municipal advisor and the opinions or views contained herein are not intended to be, and do not constitute, advice within the meaning of Section 975 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

[sqlite] internal column header not case sensitive?
I am having an issue where I build a query that creates columns based on case expressions. The expressions are identical except for a case difference. The result only shows data from the first expression duplicated in both columns. The query that results in the issue: select mycategory, count(case when type = 'typea' then 1 end) as 'test1', count(case when type = 'Typea' then 1 end) as 'test2' from mytable group by mycategory Results in a table like this: mycategory|test1|test2 cat1|500|500 cat2|350|350 But if I change it to: select mycategory, count(case when type = 'typea' then 1 end) as 'test1', count(case when type = 'Typea' then 2 end) as 'test2' from mytable group by mycategory Results in a table like this: mycategory|test1|test2 cat1|500|200 cat2|350|150 It's as if, even though I specify an AS clause, it is representing the column header internally as the expression (ignoring the unique name I provided), and since columns are case insensitive then it just refers to the first column when printing it out.
