More precisely, the all require a schema change. If you have a database created by old-application-X using a really old version of SQLite. Then you run DML statements using brand-new-application-Y, those DML statement will never change the database in any that make it unreadable by X. "DML statements" = SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE. -- D.
