My preference is to create a file with an editor to spell out the tables and some example inserts and selects to test. Then you can easily just make some changes and re-read the file to test it again.
Then you can run the sqlite shell and do this (example file is myfile.sql that you create) containing: drop table if exists mytable; create table mytable(field1,field2); insert into mytable values(1,2); insert into mytable values(3,4); select * from mytable; Then run this to create database named "my.db" sqlite3 my.db sqlite> .read myfile.sql 1|2 3|4 sqlite> Michael D.
