One solution is to use a database administration tool that supports a more full-featured table modification capability. I use SQLite Studio (http://sqlitestudio.one.pl) -- there are probably others. It allows removing and creating primary keys, foreign keys, and many, many other table modifications that ALTER TABLE does not. I assume that "under the hood" it's building a new table and copying the data from the old one, but all that's seamless to you. It's made my life a lot easier. gs _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
