Here are the meta data standards: OLEDB Scheme Rowsets http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/oledb/htm/oledbschema_rowsets.asp SQL - 92 INFORMATION SCHEMA VIEWS http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/tsqlref/ts_ia-iz_4pbn.asp However, concerning the SQLite.NET provider I recommend putting your efforts into Schemas in ADO.NET 2.0 (We're already playing with them) http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnvs05/html/adonet2schemas.asp Since SQLite has no OLEDB driver forget the schema rowset, you could create pragma's that match the SQL-92 INFORMATION_SCHEMA Views.
