I prefer PQ, however, it requires learning and may not be suitable for everyone. It does offer networking and redundancy. Well, it offers many more things which SQLite cannot. On Windows, I use it as a client and it works well. As an alternative, if you have another machine, you could install Linux on it and PostgreSQL. Anyway, many possibilities. https://www.pgadmin.org/videos/ Good luck.Guess WhoFri, 16 Apr 2021 18:11:24 -0000https://sourceforge.net/p/biblioteq/support-requests/50/?limit=25#8514https://sourceforge.net/p/biblioteq/support-requests/50/?limit=25#3a3dThe included PQ SQL script is for PQ and not for SQLite, hence the assigned file name. In BQ, see the File menu. There, you'll be able to select an SQLite file name and BQ will prepare the SQLite database for you. PostgreSQL and SQLite are not symmetric database engines.
