SQLite won't be able to use the index to satisfy LIKE condition. So you should concentrate on the other clauses. An index on (title, id) should help. For greater effect, change the query to SELECT title FROM tracks WHERE title LIKE %Mad% AND title >= :last_title AND (title>:last_title OR id>:last_id) ORDER BY title,id; Igor Tandetnik _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
