Normal and expected. Check https://www.sqlite.org/lang_insert.html. The OR REPLACE is a kind of exception handling mechanism. What you are looking for is the upsert clause for your insert statement: https://www.sqlite.org/syntax/upsert-clause.html. Some other engines might have an INSERT OR UPDATE (not REPLACE) and you have lead to think the OR REPLACE implemented by SQLite is that feature. It is not. The more general ON CONFLICT ... DO ... is what you're after. -- Best Regards, Meilleures salutations, Met vriendelijke groeten, Olivier Mascia _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
