There is good code at http://mbostrom.us/cowiki/31.html . Unlike my code it's not so ugly, as it fixes the result sets. It's a small performance hit but as SQLite locks the entire DB it's not useable for heavy sites, anyways. But if someone is up for it, go for it. COUNT DISTINCT is, I think, not taken care of, but that can be done by the regex in my version because that's a simple regex. I have clarified with the author that it is GPL. I know there is demand as I get about 1-2 letters on this every week. Regards NK
