Re: [sqlite] Import at first unhappy - then happy after all
Kevin - thanks. I've been experimenting - my code would also fail when, for example, I spooled to a file called c:\red.txt where the \r was stripped and used as an escape character. Switching to linux notation even while on Windows - .output c:/red.txt solved the problem ! Much appreciated.

Re: [sqlite] Import at first unhappy - then happy after all
Thanks for the explanation. Is there a way to change the Sqlite escape character globaly? Chose some out-of-the-way character that would allow backward quotes to be used normally? Something like - .escape [ .read c:\path\file.sql ???
