Hi All, Found a solution, so case is closed. Solution was, that sequence needed a COMMIT at the end. Real situation were a tad complex, but in principle, this works: 1: SAVEPOINT 1 2: insert A 3: RELEASE SAVEPOINT 1 4: SAVEPOINT 2 5: insert B 6: ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT 2 7: COMMIT 8: Dump the db to disk for inspecting with sqlitebrowser Previously I was dumping in the db too early in the code, and that caused confusion when inspecting. But thanks Simon and Richard for your comments, they showed that I was in the right track (I'm a newbie in SQLite). br, Esko ---------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: This e-mail may contain confidential information intended solely for the addressee.
