If I run the following sql create table table_C as select A.col_1, B.col_2
from table_A A, table_B B where A.col_3 = B.col_4 The table_C is created with the following column names: "A.col_1", "B.col_2" Quotes and all. How bizarre is that? Am I doing something wrong? (The only way around this that I've found is to change the select to select A.col_1 as col_1, B.col_2 as col_2 It seems to me sqlite should strip off the alias qualifier and create the table as col_1, col_2 jim -------------------------------------------------------- NOTICE: If received in error, please destroy and notify sender.
