I would use the update if I knew the entry already existed. In my application
however, it doesn't know if the entry already exists. I was looking for
something to replace MySQL's ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE.
I modified my application to use two SQL statements instead.
if (!db.execute("INSERT INTO users VALUES(?, ?, ?);", user.id, user.type,
user.name))
{
db.execute("UPDATE users SET name=? WHERE id=? AND type=?;", user.name,
user.id, user.type);
}
I was hoping for a single statement, but oh well.
Thanks.

REPLACE involves deleting conflicting rows, followed by INSERT, as explained by
the documentation at http://sqlite.org/lang_conflict.html . No UPDATE is taking
place - in general, several rows may be deleted for one row inserted, in which
case update would make no sense.

What problems do you have with UPDATE? This should work:
UPDATE users set name='Joe C' where id=1 and type=4;
