Er, I take it that "not as full featured" is an example of meiosis :-)

Here's what the web page says:

----------------------------------------

     Not (Yet) Supported Features
   *
     ALTER TABLE (other than add/drop constraint)
   *
     client/server mode
   *
     constraints/foreign keys (partial support is available)
   *
     GROUP BY/HAVING
   *
     stored procedures
   *
     sub-selects
   *
     triggers (note that default column values are supported)
   *
     user-level security

----------------------

This is basically a small embedded db engine, not an enterprise class RDBMS.

cheers
