If you check the Language and Region System Panel, you will see that you can
change the Region, First day of week, and Calendar. I suspect that LC is going
to sue these settings to determine any kind of day/date function.

Under iOS 8.3 one of my apps sporadically crashes when opening an sqlite
database.
In the majority of cases a 2nd start of the app (sometimes after 5th or 10th
start) resolves this problem and it´s possible to open and close the db as
often as one likes. But when restarting the app it could

Localtalk adapters would typically convert from RJ11 to LocalTalk. I suppose
you *could* daisy chain a bunch of straight up local talk connectors but the
length would have been severely limited. What Ethertalk did was allow you to

The best way to do this is to build an array from the cursor. What I have never
understood is why LC does not have a cursor to array function. It’s easy enough
to write one in LC, but having the engine do it would be orders of magnitude
faster for large cursors.
What I do is I use sqlYoga
An array is a collection of name-value pairs.
The name can be any string up to 255 characters.
The value can be anything, even another array.
Is it any deeper than that?

If the array is very large, lots of keys, and you are simply putting the keys
of the array into the message box (which is literally what this command you
have does unless you were short handing it) then you might be running into the
limits of a field i.e.. the number of lines.

as a string - and do mess around

These can easily be turned into substacks.Feel free to copy with

Richard - I only notice the slow-down in the IDE. The code executing
