I modify the parameters in the temporary table, and occasionally I may
want to save them.  Reading the sqlite documentation, I thought I
would be valid to execute

UPDATE Parameters SET value = temp.WorkingParameters.value;  But I get
an error stating that temp.workingparameters.value does not exist.

Do you have any kind of unique id in Parameters table? How do you plan to match a row in WorkingParameters to a corresponding row in Parameters? Assuming you do:

update Parameters set value =
   (select value from WorkingParameters wp
    where wp.id = Parameters.id);
