DBManager Enterprise Edition (http://www.dbtools.com.br/EN/dbmanagerpro) can do that. It has a form designer which allows to create and execute forms like MSAccess does. This manager is for windows only and there is a TRIAL Edition which you can test and see how it works. > Is there a conventional way to store the layout information in the > SQLite database itself, so it can be moved from one SQLite GUI app to > another, and retain compatible forms? I doubt you will find something like. Usually the form is handled only by the GUI which created it. For example, you can't execute MSAcess forms on any other GUI. Because of that it doesn't matter if the form is saved in the SQLite DB or not, since most GUI's will not know what to do with it.
