SqliteVba
VBA classes written for use in Excel to interact with SQLite
I am working with Windows colleagues and need to provide a database for storage and data management. I decided against MS Access and opted for SQLite for reasons that I will explain in the future. The plan is to use Excel as a front-end for end users with SQLite in the backend. This is a work in progress. The classes are not yet tested or documented.
Aim to write this up in a lengthy blog entry
- Requires installation of SQLite exe (from the SQLite downloads page) and the Sqlite ODBC driver (http://www.ch-werner.de/sqliteodbc/).
- In the VBA editor, add references to the ADO and scripting runtime libraries.
