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.
