On the SQLite download page, you will find both a Pre-release Snapshot and a "sqlite-autoconf" tarball. Download either of these. (I suggest the Pre-release Snapshot so that you can help us beta test!) Untar, and cd into the "tea" subdirectory. Then type: "./configure; make install". That is suppose to install the latest SQLite for TCL. "TEA" is the "Tcl Extension Architecture". Reading the original post, plus his response to your first answer, it appears to me that he actually wants to update a binary package version of TCL/TK, compiled for the Windows platform, to a newer version of SQLite without (ideally) recompiling anything, or at least without recompiling the binary TCL/TK package. Your instructions are for recompiling TCL/TK with the newer version of SQLite on a Unix/Linux type platform, AFAICT. I'd think that dropping a newer version of SQLite, compiled as a run-time linkable library, into a pre-existing binary compiled to use a previous version of SQLite would require the ABI for SQLite (compiled for use as a linkable library) to be identical between versions, or at least backwards compatible (such that a newer version of the library can be used with an application compiled for a previous version of the library to provide the same functionality as the previous version, tho not newer functionality first provided by the newer version of the library). But is this a reasonable thing to expect on any platform, and specifically on the Windows platform? I don't know that it is, at least in this case.
