Simply put a ; there..it will finish the command and says invalid sqlite command and comes back to the commad mode again.

When using the command line interface sqlite3, a couple of times I have forgotten to use the "." before a command. After that I get a "...>" prompt that I can't seem to escape from and accepts no commands? My only choice is to shut down that terminal and start a new one.. There must be an easy way to get back to the command mode? And what is the "...>" mode? Scott ================================================================= Hi Scott, The command line utility thinks you are continuing a long SQL command. A semicolon (;) will terminate it, put you back to command mode, and allow you to .quit ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----- To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----- ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
