I'm not certain I understand your question, but here goes: Sqlite3.exe is a command-line interface, so you don't really "browse" at all.
However, you can specify the path and name of a database on the command line when you invoke sqlite3, e.g. (In windows): Sqlite3 "c:\NiceDirectory_Without_spaces\MyDatabase.db" The quotes are usually optional, but not when your path contains spaces ALSO, you may want to see the ATTACH command in the documentation. Once inside sqlite3, the .databases command should produce SOME output, even if you haven't opened an existing database. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Manisha De Silva Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2008 10:36 AM To: General Discussion of SQLite Database Subject: Re: [sqlite] data dump in sqlite I downloaded sqlite3.exe I typed in .databases and it doesn't show any database.
