Aah, thanks. Makes sense a lot. There were quite a few people here in the last few days who asked how to build or use Python (or pysqlite) when SQLite is not installed (and they can't because it's not their system). I always said that it's not necessary to have SQLite installed for /running/ Python. Seems that I was "65%" right. Thorsten -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
