I know this is a fundamental question, but in the book I'm using to learn SQLite, there is no reference that I can find for what one needs to do to create a database. I thought that simply using a CREATE statement with a database name included might do the trick, but alas it does not.
I went to the SQLite website and under the "SQLite in 5 minutes" page it says to simply do this (after downloading the appropriate files, which I did) at the dos prompt: SQLite3 test.db When I tried it, I received this back: SQLite version 3.7.3 Enter ".help" for instructions Enter SQL statements terminated with a ";" sqlite> I quit out of the SQLite shell and looked for test.db and did not find it. So my question remains. How do I create a database? R, John A.M.
