Brian, Can you be a bit more specific? You have the case expression which allows you to return values depending on other values http://www.sqlite.org/lang.html#expr
something like case Col1 when 1 then 'happy' when 2 then 'sad' so this could be wrapped up like update table1 set col2 = case Col1 when 1 then 'happy' when 2 then 'sad' else 'who knows' end where Col3 = 'What she thinking' hope this help (oh you might want to check the syntax of the case expression ) Greg O ----- Original Message ----- From: Brian Pugh To: SQLite Email Sent: Friday, February 20, 2004 7:42 AM Subject: [sqlite] Changing a Field Hi, I need to do a multiple search and replace on the same field in my database. Can anyone suggest a suitable bit of code for this? I have over 100,000 records, so any automation is very welcome! Thanks for any suggestions, Brian Pugh
