Is that correct?
A SQLite database file is just a file. It can be read and understood by many different programs. sqlite3.exe is just one more program which understands that file format. You can make a database with sqlite3.exe, but then read and write it with a program you've written yourself. Or vice versa. The Data Provider you're talking about is something you have chosen to use because of the programming environment you have chosen to use. It's not needed by every program which uses SQLite.
