Thanks Michael. I should form a habit of trying it. It wasn't because I
didn't want to, it was because I always fear that if I'm not careful with
data I could ruin the precious data at one keystroke. So I kind of always
ask before doing, lol.

Hi Bao -
Why don’t you just try it? As I’ve said, pysqlite returns unicode for strings
already so the SQLAlchemy type isn’t really important except in some in-Python
expression situations (like getting the + operator to do string concatenation).
Your table is returning everything as
Here is what I got from sqlite select sql from sqlite_master where
name=‘tablename’;
CREATE TABLE persons (ID ,名 ,中间名 ,姓 ,类别 ,生日 ,主要电话 ,住宅传真
,住宅地址国家地区 ,住宅地址市县 ,住宅地址街道 ,住宅地址邮政编码 ,住宅电话 ,住宅电话2 ,其他传真
,其他地址国家地区 ,其他地址市县 ,其他地址省市自治区 ,其他地址街道 ,其他地址邮政编码 ,其他电话 ,办公地点
,单位 ,单位主要电话 ,商务传真 ,商务地址国家地区 ,商务地址市县
Hi Michael, I don't have any problem having them all as NullType, but I
just want to make sure the SQLite will deal with smoothly even when they
are actually not NullType but Unicode/UnicodeText types. May I just go
ahead and use NullType here instead of explicitly re-define all those
columns as
the two cases where NullType() is still returned are if the type is defined as
BLOB or as NULL in the SQLAlchemy database. change those and you won’t get any
NullType. post your table defs here using:
sqlite select sql from sqlite_master where name=‘tablename’;

Thank you Michael.
I've read the documentation that you quoted very carefully but still not
very sure in my case. You said that since 0.9.3 this issue has been
resolved, but I'm using 0.9.8 on Ubuntu and still get NullTypes. If I'm
using sqlalchemy MetaData.reflect() or automap extensions,
I have a couple of questions regarding the Unicode/UnicodeText column type
here.
1) I'm using Python 3, do I still need to explicitly use
Unicode/UnicodeText type to define my columns? I thought Python 3
inherently supports unicode?
2) If I use MetaData.reflect(), it seems to me that all
