[SOLVED] Re: Is SQLite case sensitive on Linux

Thans Zvoni for the suggestions.

The SO post you linked to uses COUNT, and whilst I agree that seems like a good alternative, the problem here I think is that COUNT considers all entries, null or not. Whereas dseligo's use of rownumber is used to show specific filtering results that I am trying to achive, for example, where a value was found in one folder, but not the other. I could be wrong, but either way dseligo is going to try and re-write the SQL for me I think, so I'll wait for him as he seems to be far better at it than I am. If he can't do it I will either a) look at your previous suggestion that may well work as well, or b) if that doesn't, then I will use a compiler switch for Linux and OSX that basically tells the user "Sorry - you cant use this part of the program". I'd obviously prefer to avoid that, but the previous implementation I had was not working properly. Better to have no option than a wrong option.

UPDATE - just seen he has PM'd me in fact, so I will look at his work ASAP!

dseligo reworked the SQL statements (like a hero!) and it all seems to work fine now on OSX and Linux, and Windows. So it seems the SQL syntax itself is not case sensitive on Linux. Just a matter of a SQL statement that was for newer versions only.
