Interestingly, when simply testing like this: import sqlite3, sys sPATH=r'e:\pythonexamples\aivars2.db' oCon=sqlite3.connect(sPATH)
cur=oCon.cursor() oCon.execute("""UPDATE rezerve SET latusaldo = ? WHERE gads = ? """,(6000.0,'2006')) oCon.commit() it works. Therefore I am stuck since it looks like there is something wrong in below function.
