The second argument to execute() must be a sequence of parameter values. You have one parameter value, the string b. To make a one-tuple, you need a comma, as in "(b,)". > con.commit() > > The error message I get is : > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> > File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sqlite/main.py", line 255, in > execute > self.rs = self.con.db.execute(SQL % parms) This traceback line worries me. I'm almost certain that you're not using the latest version of the sqlite module. The module that is included with Python2.5 is called sqlite3, and it lives in .../python/site-packages/sqlite3/* and .../python/lib-dynload/_sqlite3.so.
