    Here's how to do it in Spatialite: First import your points
    shapefile into a Spatialite database. If you do this with
    spatialite_gui, there's an option to automatically create a primary
    key (recommended) then run a query like:<br>
    <br>
    SELECT p1.pk_uid, p2.pk_uid, MIN(ST_Distance(p1.geometry,
    p2.geometry))<br>
    FROM points AS p1, points AS p2 <br>
    WHERE p1.pk_uid <> p2.pk_uid<br>
    GROUP BY p1.pk_uid;<br>
    <br>
    If you need the results exported to some table, then a right click
    in the gui result window brings up a menu with an option to export .<br>
    HTH,<br>
