If I have a string variable with 31 fields (integer, text, text, and 28

can I insert them into the appropriate table with a single statement such
as this from a python/pysqlite method I'm writing:
self.cur.execute("insert into component(vote_id, cat, pos, pw) values
(row)")
Rich,
Not as shown, but you could build the insert statement as a string in
python and then pass that to the execute method. Assuming row is your
string of values:
sql = "insert into component(vote_id, cat, pos, pw) values (" + row + ")"
self.cur.execute(sql)
Note, you have only got 4 columns in your column list, so you will get
an error if you feed in 31 columns of data.
You may need to extract the relevant columns using split to separate
your string at the commas, collecting the data for the columns you need,
and then reassembling only those columns into a new string of row data.
