Thanks for the response Gabor. Looks like the below example will work when using SQLite, but in my case I'm just creating a dataframe in R and trying to update it using sqldf as below and it doesn't seem to work ...
con <- data.frame(V1 = c(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)) sqldf() sqldf(c("pragma count_changes = 1", "update con set V1 = 0 where V1 > 5 ")) ans <- sqldf("select * from main.con") sqldf() -----Original Message----- From: Gabor Grothendieck [mailto:ggrothendi...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, June 11, 2020 9:12 AM To: Ravi Jeyaraman <rav...@gmail.com> Cc: r-help@r-project.org Subject: Re: [R] sqldf and number of records affected Here is an example. Ignore the warning or use the workaround discussed here https://github.com/ggrothendieck/sqldf/issues/40 to avoid the warning. library(sqldf) sqldf() # use same connection until next sqldf() sqldf(c("pragma count_changes = 1", "update BOD set demand = 99 where Time > 4")) sqldf("select * from main.BOD") sqldf() On Thu, Jun 11, 2020 at 9:01 AM Ravi Jeyaraman <rav...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello all, When I execute a SQL using SQLDF, how do I get the number > of records affected?
