Simon, System.Data.Sqlite integration in visual studio has a database manager. You can use it to create databases/views/tables and also to design queries for table adapters and all kinds of nice things.
As stated in my original example, my database is currently encrypted and therefore I can not use the console version of sqlite. The specific issue has to do with an error that comes up in the integrated query designer for visual studio 2010, although I am sure that it is not isolated to 2010. I found a link to a post on sqlite.phxsoftware.com/forums that addresses this, but the link is currently broken. And a browse to the domain sqlite.phxsoftware.com has the same issue.
