I have been able to use SQLite2009 Pro Management Studio to export the specific 
record from the DB3 file into Excel without any issues, the entire record 
appears correctly. I was trying to create VBA code within Excel to do the same 
thing. The blob record is a form of html code, it doesn't follow any typical 
code pattern so I had to write code to extract the data that I needed for the 
report(s). I have successfully created the routines and the report works well.

So the only part that I am having difficulty with is automating the importing 
of the record from the DB3 file into my worksheet. SQLite Studio exports the 
record that I need into an Excel worksheet just fine. I then copy the record 
into the worksheet that I created and execute my routines to produce the 
reports that have been requested. I am trying to have as little user 
interaction as possible.

Thanks,
Preston

Hi,

Have a look at the last post in this thread. Never tested this but if true then 
maybe it's an idea to try to implement it in vba part of sqliteforexcel.
