Sqlite3: how to reorder columns in a table?

Question

It seems that it is not straightforward for reordering columns in a sqlite3 table. At least the sqlite manager in firefox

Answer 1

You can always order the columns however you want to in your SELECT statement, like this:

SELECT column1,column5,column2,column3,column4
FROM mytable
WHERE ...

You shouldn't need to "order" them in the table itself.
