We do thisby usig the Sqlite "Declared Type" (which can be anything you choose) and intercepting it in a layer of software between Sqlite and the application language manager. For example we have a decimal number type, a date type etc. The data is stored as Sqlite TEXT or FLOAT but the interface handle transformatiuon into the decimal or date format exopecrted by the host langauge processor.
