I suggest only using "insert or replace" if you genuinely want to delete and
replace with a new row. This is generally not hat you want if there are any
foreign keys.
Only use "insert or ignore" if you are inserting exactly the same row as what
might already be there.
Otherwise use a combination of insert and update.
So, for example, if you are wanting to add a person that may not already be in
your table:
insert or ignore into "Person" ("First Name", "Last Name", "Company", "Email")
select 'Tom', 'Brodhurst-Hill', 'BareFeetWare', 'develo...@barefeetware.com')
;
update "Person"
set "Email" = 'develo...@barefeetware.com'
where "First Name" = 'Tom' and "Last Name" = 'Brodhurst-Hill'
;
This will insert if not already there and update if it is.
If you post your specific schema and non-idea insert or replace, I can show you
in that context.
Thanks,
