Subject: RE: [sqlite] I need a SQLite3 Wrapper for Java.

Hello, I am new to sqlite and I wish to get the count of unique entries
in a particular field.  The table is created as follows:

create table tablename
  (
    field_id char(10) not null ,
    fieldname char(100)
  );
create unique index findex on tablename 
    (field_id);

I get an error with the query:
        select (distinct fieldname) from tablename;

but this gives me the wrong answer:  
        select distinct (fieldname) from tablename;

Sorry for such a novice question and thank you for any help.
