Thanks all. I'll consider this thread done. With Ryan and Bills comments, I've decided that I'll truck on as is, and not worry about special string considerations. Thinking about how Delphi Berlin is handling strings at the compiler level, and how the wrapper I use is handling the strings based

I'm absolutely clear that the SQLite3 developers have absolutely NOTHING to do with SQLite Expert. I apologize if there was any indication that I was thinking that I was asking for the devs of SQLite3 would have a direct answer to how that 3rd party tool works. My hope was that someone who uses S
