SQL is Structured Query Language, a language for writing queries to an RDBMS SQLite is a lightweight implementation of an RDBMS that runs on Android (among other places) and uses SQL to return data. HTH, Mikey On 16 Jul 2010, at 07:54, Raul Martinez wrote: > Are SQL and SQLite the same thing?

[android-beginners] Re: SQL and SQLite

Yes, SQL is a "standard" for a database query language and API, and SQLite is an (open source, portable) implementation of that standard. Some would quibble about how well SQLite adheres to the standard, but one can also say the same of most other implementations (there are lots of "dialects"), and

Certainly with only 100 rows you could write the SQL script containing the create table command and 100 insert commands and then use something like SQLite Expert to execute the script and create the DB. Or you could just write a straight Java application to execute the commands and create the DB.
