But I was only following a book, can you tell me why it says 'type SQL and press enter'? "If you want to play along at home, you can use the command-line sqlite3 client to create a database and perform SQL queries upon it without getting involved with Ruby at all. Just run sqlite3 test.db, where test.db is your chosen database file name. You can then type SQL and press Enter to execute it. To leave the client, you can type .quit on a separate line and press Enter." Thank you. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. Sent from my BlackBerry device on the Rogers Wireless Network
