I have tried to search for SQLite on the web. SQLite seems
to be an alternative data base, which might be used instead

(1) Do you recommend use of SQLite instead of the REALBasic
built-in data base?
REALBasic uses SQLite as the built-in database.
(2) Or do you mean that SQLite Manager can be used also for
the REALBasic data base?
SQLite Manager can be used with REALBasic databases (since they are
SQLite databases).
(3) Can I use SQLite Manager with an existing REALBasic
data base, or do I have to define my data base in special
ways to suit SQLite Manger?
(4) What is the advantages of using SQLite Manger?
SQLite Manager makes it convenient to view and manipulate the data in
your database outside of your RB code. It is easy to test queries
in it and such. It is a complementary tool for the development of RB
database applications.
For example, if your RB code does not find a record that you think is
in the database, you can fire up SQLite Manager and look to see if
the record is there. If it is, you can test the query that you use
in your RB code. If the query isn't quite right, you can figure out
the correct query and then update your RB code. I am still a
database novice but SQLite Manager has been very helpful to me.
Perhaps the pros don't have much need for it.
I hope that helps.
Cheers,
Malcolm Smith
