Inserting a number as a String into a Text column and SQLite stills removes the leading zero

Question

I got the following number as a string: String numberString = \"079674839\";

When I insert this number into a SQLite DB, SQLite automatically removes the leading zer

Answer 1

Use single quotes around the number, (i.e., '079674839') if it is anywhere in inline sql code. Also, if you're doing this programatically, make sure that you are not going through a numeric conversion.
