In case it is of use to any VB or VBA coders, I think this is all the code
needed to work with this dll. Also added a bit of code to do timings.

Thanks, that makes it clear.

Interesting, didn't know that.
Maybe I should re-create when the majority or a lot of rows are deleted.

It returns the number of rows affected by a delete, update, or insert (not
updated by selects). It's not the number _changed_, but the number of rows
addressed by the WHERE clause, whether an update actually changes a value or
not. One special case is when you DELETE FROM table with no where clause..
explained below.
>From sqlite3.h:
/*
** This function returns the number of database rows that were changed
** (or inserted or deleted) by the most recent called sqlite3_exec().
**
** All changes are counted, even if they were later undone by a
** ROLLBACK or ABORT. Except, changes associated with creating and
** dropping tables are not counted.
**
** If a callback invokes sqlite3_exec() recursively, then the changes
** in the inner, recursive call are counted together with the changes
** in the outer call.
**
** SQLite implements the command "DELETE FROM table" without a WHERE clause
** by dropping and recreating the table. (This is much faster than going
** through and deleting individual elements form the table.) Because of
** this optimization, the change count for "DELETE FROM table" will be
** zero regardless of the number of elements that were originally in the
** table. To get an accurate count of the number of rows deleted, use
** "DELETE FROM table WHERE 1" instead.
