...this doesn't work, note the back slash...also, this will only work, that is to create the database automatically and then subsquently create a table, if you user the 'users' folder...if you use 'program files, etal' you will not be able to create the database...bummer: Prelude Database.HDBC Database.HDBC.Sqlite3> conn <- connectSqlite3 "c:\users\user\test1.db" <interactive>:1:27: lexical error in string/character literal at character 'u'
The backslash is the escape marker, so if you want a backslash in a String, you have to escape it (as written, it tries to interpret the escape sequence '\u', which doesn't exist). Try with "c:\\users\\user\\test1.db"
