Thanks Simon. If I can't figure that out I will just type all the data
in manually and learn from the school of hard knocks. :-) I googles it
and it seems that I am not the only one that has tried to do this and it
seems like it should be easy. I think in regular SQL it might be easier.
Oh well
Dave
I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to do from your description -
the schema of the tables you have and those that you want may help.
But as a general idea you might be able to use something along the lines of
create table newtable as select x, y, z from oldtable

Hi Paul,
I got it sorted out I ended up with this using my SQLite Expert
Professional (if it matters).
update tableB set column2 = (select column2 from tableA where
tableA.rowid = tableB.rowid)
Of course I did not figure that out myself and asked for help on the
forum of the software and go
Ryan,
Thanks for your reply. As I mention in my last post:

There are a lot of great tools available for SQLite (possibly moreso
than any other DB system

Ryan,
I have been to the link below but was under the impression that SQL
and SQLite are two different things so I usually just look up SQLite
help. I can do simple queries as I did the Kahn Academy training. :-)
Most of the queries are straight forward but this one seemed a little
tougher.

Ryan,
Thanks for the added info. I will be happy to take this off-list for
any further pointers if they may be best suited there . I don't want to
be the guy that causes any trouble as a noob. :-) I will touch base with
you off -list soon but maybe in a day or so. I appreciate the help.
Thank
