How to delete a certain part of a list in sqlite3 python?
I am making a program where you can edit a part of the list using sqlite3, tkinter and python. However, there is this part of the program that keeps bugging me.
cursor.execute('DELETE FROM Photos phonenumber WHERE name1=?', [entry.get()])
With that line of code I am trying to delete a certain part of the list, so I can replace with something else in the future. An error keeps showing up, saying that there is a syntax error near phonenumber. If anyone knows that proper sqlite3 command to delete specific parts of a program, that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jamal

Then you don't wantDELETEas it deletes whole row(s). You want toUPDATEa row and overwrite the phone number with an empty string orNULL.
