in reply to Working with DBI and DBD::SQLite2

1. $dbh is undefined, I think you need to either change $D to $dbh or vice versa.
2. $s is undefined, I think you mean $sth

Here is your stuff working and some modifications I made to show you some oddities ( that SQLite docs claim are not bugs but features...) about SQLite that I noticed right away. I don't like this rdbms because it really doesn't care what stuff you feed it. I defined an integer, but it doesn't complain when I send it something else. And you don't get an exception raised when you try to create a table with a bogus data type, which makes debuging difficult.

I would also note that attributes like NULL and NOT NULL which are required when creating tables in most all rdbms's is ignored by SQLite. Also, a DATE datatype which would benefit from right away is absent in SQLite ( you should convert all your dates to a linear value if you want to use this tool and compare inside of SQLite? )
I personally don't think I will ever use this tool. There are too many free fully featured rdbms's out there.

    I cut and pasted from my test script. Looks like I forgot to rename a few variables. :)
