I'm not sure right now, but I think I've done that every now and then. With a bad feeling. Instinctively I'd rather first SELECT, store the results, finalize the SELECT statement and then get to work on its result using the stored data. It's just that without intermediate storage it's a bit easier (no need to do any ressource management), and I've found nothing in the docs that says I shouldn't do that. robert _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
